    "content": " Hon. Senators, if a Senator is on a point of order, you do not have to shout ‘on a point of order’ because I will not yield. The Standing Orders are very clear. That is why I insist that we read our Standing Orders, so that we can have a neat engagement in the Senate. Allow me to address myself to the matter raised by Sen. Dullo. Hon. Senators, allow me to invite you to Standing Order No.190 where the SBC is constituted. The SBC comprises of the Speaker, the Majority Leader, the Minority Leader, the Majority Whip, the Minority Whip, and seven other Members who shall be nominated by the parliamentary parties. Therefore, it is assumed that when the list comes to the Senate, the political parties have sat and nominated. What is left to the Senate is merely to approve or to reject the whole Committee. Sen. Dullo, I am not aware of any dispute between you and Azimio . If indeed there is a dispute, kindly bring it forward. At that point, I will be able to make a ruling. As it is now, I am not seized of any dispute. I have not received any letter to the contrary. So, kindly, be guided that if you feel aggrieved and if there is a dispute between Jubilee and the other constituent parties of Azimio, write the relevant correspondence to me and I will make a ruling in that regard, As it is now, it is assumed that in the absence of any registered dispute that the list that has been tabled before, coming from the minority and majority must have gone through the processes of nomination. So, the Senate cannot be dragged, unless moved by a dispute within your coalition. Let us proceed."
