"content": "I will then invite you to examine the documents that were presented alongside the resolution from the Speaker of the Isiolo County Assembly in support of the fact that there was a resolution adopted by the Assembly to remove the Governor. I will refer the Senate to the County Assembly documents, and that is at Volume No.3 of the County Assembly documents, pages one to six, which has the Order Paper of the 18th June, 2025, and that Order Paper ultimately indicates that the Motion for the removal of the Governor was adjourned to Thursday, 26th June, 2025 at 2.30 p.m. That time is extremely material to these proceedings. The HANSARD of 18th June, 2025 at pages seven to 14, that is still Volume No.3 of the County Assembly documents, indicates that the proceedings for removal of the Governor were also adjourned to the 26th June, 2025 at 2.30 p.m. At pages 15 and 16, that is still Volume No.3, there is an invitation to the Governor to attend. That invitation invites the Governor to attend the County Assembly on the 26th June, 2025, at 9.00 a.m. Volume No.5 of the County Assembly's documents at pages three and four contains the Affidavit of Service of that invitation served by the Speaker. So, there is no doubt whatsoever that the Governor is invited to appear at 9.00 a.m. on 26th June, 2025. The Speaker in Volume No.5 also presents a document for the special sitting of the Assembly. It is dated 23rd June, 2025 and that sitting is indicated to commence at 9.00 a.m. It is, therefore, not in any doubt that the Assembly set the hearing of the Motion for 9.00 a.m. on 26th June, 2025. I now refer the Hon. Senate to the Standing Orders of the County Assembly of Isiolo and specifically, Standing Order No.1. It is found at Volume No.3, pages 85 and 86 on the times set for the sitting of the County Assembly; that is, 9.00 a.m. for Wednesdays and 2.30 p.m. for Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. I do not need to say this because you are familiar with these times. It therefore follows that if the County Assembly is to meet at any other time other than as set out in the Standing Orders, there must be a resolution to that effect. So, therefore, the logical question that we are asking the Senate is this: Is the HANSARD genuine? The HANSARD talks about a sitting conducted at 2.30 p.m., that is in line with the Standing Orders, but the notices, the invitation and the Special Sitting issued by the Speaker talk about a sitting to be conducted at 9.00 a.m. So, therefore, Hon. Speaker and Hon. Senators, we invite you, the Senate, to take note of the above and then allow us to also review the HANSARD that is provided. You probably understand the HANSARD much better than we do. I refer you to the HANSARD of 18th June, 2025, which clearly shows that the County Assembly was adjourned to 26th of June at 2.30 p.m. I refer you to Volume No.3 still of the Assembly's documentation. The issues that you will note when you review the HANSARD is that, first of all, it is not certified by the Clerk as is required. It just bears a stamp. It is, therefore, our submission that these latent, open, obvious and blatant contradictions and anomalies between the HANSARD and other records provided by the Assembly are major indicators not only of misrepresentation, but that the documents presented by the Assembly have been cooked and generated outside the Assembly. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
