    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise on Standing Order No.91 on the responsibility for a Statement of fact for a Member. Having listened to what Hon. Sabina has raised and the response by the able Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, I was wondering whether it is in order for Hon. Sabina Chege to purport to be asking a question on a matter that is already within her knowledge. One, the only reason why voter registration is not going on in Kiambaa is because her party, Jubilee, and the candidate she supported in the last by-election in Kiambaa Constituency, have lodged an appeal. It is also a statement of fact and it is in law and our statutes and Hon. Sabina Chege being a Member of Parliament, a legislator making laws in this House, knows that we have passed regulations in this House for the IEBC that if there is a petition filed in a court of law, then voter registration cannot go on in that particular constituency. Hon. Speaker, I am just wondering whether Sabina Chege is not out of order to be misusing her privilege as a Member of this House to come and drive partisan agenda on Kiambaa Constituency on behalf of the candidate that she supported in the last by-election, whose proxies and supporters within Jubilee are stopping the people of Kiambaa from registering as voters."
