"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. Mine is very brief because of the record. I know that the Senate Majority Whip, Sen. Wamatangi, in his maiden speech, is anxious to defend the party leadership. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if he listened to me very carefully, my statements were in defence of those who are not sitting in this House. If we open the door for us to speak about the former Vice-President who is sitting there or Hon. David Murathe in a negative light, then there is no one to defend them here. It would be expected, of course, that courtesy would demand that when we mention their names, it is in a good and positive light. However, in equal measure, when you start mentioning in that light, so many people here would make accusations against them when they are standing there, I cannot promise that when Sen. (Dr.) Langat, who was arrested when he was performing his serious duties at the behest of the party, may not be too kind like myself when he stands to speak. Therefore, my defence was in positive light. I think Sen. Wamatangi should relax. He has his place and nobody will remove him."
