"content": "From where I sit, we should not allow that Statement to go unchallenged. This is because there are many misgivings and casting aspersions on the police and the Government and that should not go unchallenged. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request your direction since Sen. Faki is still on the Floor. In the Statement, he cast aspersions and misgivings by the police. Therefore, you should allow us to ventilate on that Statement and seek further clarification. We are aware that the people in question are not from mainstream media stations. They are people of the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition Party who were being used to incite the public, bring disharmony and disturb peace across the country. Therefore, we cannot allow that to happen. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you need to rule some specifics of that Statement be struck out from the record especially on what the police did and whether the matter has been reported to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA). If we allow that Statement to fly across the face of the Senate, we will be encouraging people to break the law, destroy property, and incite the public using the media that is sponsored by Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition Party. They have been attacking us. Nowadays they are being used to defend Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition Party, which we do not have a problem with. However, if we allow it, we will be giving them a forum to come and discuss mundane instead of serious issues."
