It looks like my predecessor is opening debate rather than just giving information. If they were together with Sen. Kihika, how could he be informing her of things that they did together?

Magnanimity is required in the House. For Sen. (Dr.) Langat to purport that I have taken the seat by force or using his quote from the Bible, can he use the Bible properly? The Bible has a lot of things, but that is not one of the things that applies.
