Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. I want to start by concurring with my colleagues that truly we must really preach peace in this country. We must also insist on compliance with the law and, of course, we are all disappointed that our colleagues in leadership, whether Members of the County Assemblies or Members of Parliament did such a barbaric act today in the name of assaulting our friend, hon.
