Senator James Orengo;

"I think this is a very democratic process for us to make that decision. Finally, I want to say that in my many years in Parliament, I would encourage that each Senator has got their own self worth.

When we sit or camp before the Senate as a parliamentarian, you have your own self worth. And me, I can never be intimidated in my political life. Because I've seen many people come and go. I've seen many powerful people come and go. -

I have seen presidents come here and go. I have seen people who on their word, you'd leave this house and be locked in the same day, they've come and gone.

I've seen very respected women like Grace Onyango who was in the committee for the special investigations relating to the disappearance of JM Kariuki. And that lady made me very proud and she stood firm.

I want to plead with you. We've got a heavy task. And if people out there feel you can be intimidated and you've been brought to this House with all the powers that we have including the powers the trial of a governor.

Imagine next time you may have a motion for the trial of a president, will you be intimidated? So I urge you, for the future of this country, in the performance of your constitutional duties, never be intimidated.

And if my day comes, I'll accept it. But my conscience, I will never sell it." #JichoTVNews
