"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me the opportunity to oppose what my Learned Senior, hon. Olago, is urging you to do. We know that the matter of Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) is very important, but we also know that, equally important, is the matter of the Mau and the environment in this country. Indeed, we are not just addressing the Mau. You will hear some of us talk about many catchment areas that have been destroyed through the reckless management of the environment and our forests in this country. It is a matter of peoplesâ livelihoods. I do not think that we should start re-arranging the order of business in the House simply because we want to dispose of the matter of KACC. We will still be here on Tuesday. If we finish the debate, the issue of KACC will come after this. I want to urge the Chair to reject the application by hon. Olago. It has no basis, no rationale and no meaning. It is simply meant to cause confusion in the House. We are all here to contribute very intensely to the issue of not only the Mau, but all the water towers in this country that are under threat and that spell doom to the future of this country. I beg to oppose."
