"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not a lawyer but, I have been in business for many years. If you look at what is happening in the business circles, you will find that a shopkeeper writes a price of Kshs999. They do this because they want to attract a customer. The price can be Kshs1,000, but they want to attract a customer, and they put Kshs999. Referring you to Section 33 of the County Governments Act, it clearly says that a minimum of two-thirds. The County Assembly of Kericho should go back and get 32 MCAs and then come back to the Senate. We are not here to sacrifice the Governor of Kericho County. We need to protect each and every person, if that person was brought here in a way that the Constitution has made it very clear that anything that is less than two-thirds is not acceptable. So, 31 is not 32. It is 31. If they can bring the governor here with 32 votes, I will say, yes, because that is acceptable. Let them do their homework well and come back with 32 votes and that is how we will prosecute this."
