    "content": "petition in a foolscap, rather than on an A4 paper. We are getting different interpretations to the ruling that has been referred to by both parties. On this matter, we should not go with Rule No.30 of the Standing Orders, which empowers the Speaker to make a decision. I want to encourage us to do what we did in the case of the Governor for Nairobi City County, Hon. Sonko. Some affidavits were sworn by Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) that discredited the outcome of the vote. The Speaker ruled that we should allow all parties to prosecute their case then the Senate, sitting as a jury, would make a decision on the ultimate day of voting. I would propose, and I would urge Mr. Speaker, Sir, that you do not refer to Rule No. 30 of the Standing Orders, but allow the House to proceed and ensure that there is procedural fairness in the matter of Kericho County."
