    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we hear you. However, from your communication, the Prime Cabinet Secretary has alerted the Senate this morning. The Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning has alerted the Senate this morning. It should also occur to this House that this is not the first time the Prime Cabinet Secretary is failing to appear before this House. If this does not imply attitude, then what does? The Prime Cabinet Secretary has an attitude about this House. He thinks that the House is waiting for him so that this morning it discovers that he is not around. He had a seven-day window during which he knew he was going to travel. He should have informed us. This is the time for us now to sanction the Prime Cabinet Secretary so that he respects the House of equity that represents the 47 counties of Kenya. If we do not call the current Cabinet to order as Parliament, they are going to run rough shots on all Kenyans. The same applies to Prof. Njuguna Ndung’u. Probably, shingo upande, we can accept the one who is “in Dubai” because he had the courtesy of informing us earlier. However, these two represent two critical portfolios and they must be here. I beg you today on this Standing Order, that you sanction them. Otherwise, Parliament will start looking like a baraza in Malinya, Mtwapa, Loiyangalani or Maua. That cannot be the case. Who are they to challenge the Senate? Who?"
