Hon. Rauff Hakeem, Attorney-at-Law
2026-03-04
## Summary Hon. Rauff Hakeem concluded his speech with a quotation attributed to John F. Kennedy, warning that those who seek power through dangerous means risk being consumed by the very forces they attempt to exploit. The remark was offered as a cautionary note against tolerating certain unspecified actions, suggesting consequences for those who pursue power recklessly. *Note: The extract provided contains only the concluding remarks of the speech, without sufficient context to identify the specific legislation, policy, or events being referenced.*
I will conclude with John F. Kennedy: “Those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside.” That is what may happen if such actions are tolerated anywhere.
