    "content": "There is no doubt Sen. Okong’o is a very fine lawyer. He has been the Chairperson of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK). Sen. Orengo is a senior lawyer while Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. is mercurial. They will help this House a lot more, particularly for colleagues who have no background in legal training, to understand that you cannot bring a legislation and tell the House: “This provision is an assault, affront and claw back on the Constitution, but pass it and let somebody challenge it in court.” This is what we are grappling with. On this, a point of order can be raised at any moment. It cannot be predicated on the totality of the Member on the Floor. Where he veers off the track, we have the right to move him. Where he side steps, we also have the right to move him. We are not doing this because we want to derail debate; we want to have a good Constitution to help this country."
