"content": "Parliament, because I have already made my position clear on injunctions and the two Arms of Government; the Legislature and the Executive. I have always argued in the past, the present and the future that the Judiciary cannot injunct Parliament in its legislative role, but in quasi-judicial or administrative roles, injunctions are quite legal. If there is a court order, it needs to be complied with. Secondly, I see no hurry in chasing a colleague. As the Speaker of this House, Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura is our colleague. Finally, I wish to go on record that this a travesty of justice, whatever decision you take. I hope the people of Kenya are taking notice of how we are observing the Constitution that they passed. If we are disregarding it, nothing will prevent us from even undermining the amendments we are considering this afternoon. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg you respectfully to reconsider your decision."
