"content": "Some of the judgments that we get from our courts are supposed to guide us. Senate Majority Leader, some of these judgments are supposed to remind us that we should be men and women of honour. When I raised this issue here this afternoon, I was not questioning the fact that the Kenya Kwanza Coalition is the majority. However, there are some decisions that we have made that go against the judgement that came from the High Court. I know as a fact that when we came here, the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) had 22 Senators, then there was one from Ford-Kenya and one from Democratic Party (DP). That gave you 24. If you add the eight who were nominated, you are 34. Therefore, you are the majority. Nonetheless, there are some things you have done which are unprocedural, including the name that you have put before us this afternoon, which goes against the judgement that was issued by the court last week. You have given the name of Sen. Ali Roba as coming from the majority side."
