"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a House of records and honour. Members of this House should really speak to the facts. I stand under Standing Order No.105, on responsibilities for statement of facts. We should not spend the whole afternoon criminalizing crops which are a livelihood to many Kenyans, without facts. Sen. Faki, Sen. Shakila Abdalla and now Sen. Abass cannot get away with it. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want Sen. Abass, the Senator for Wajir County, to bring documents of facts, showing that Miraa and Muguka are drugs. A lot of research has been done in this country and even in the United Kingdom (UK), before the ban. I want Sen. Abass to bring a research paper to this House, showing that Miraa is a drug. That way, we can then confine ourselves and own what we speak. Otherwise, if we continue speaking just for the sake of pleasing the Gallery, then we are doing the wrong thing. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence. Apply Standing Order No.105, so that the hon. Member can furnish this House and the community with evidence. I can see Members are digressing from the Statement sought by Sen. Munyi Mundigi. Please, apply Standing Order No.1 and stop this debate."
