    "content": "If we conclude, as I invite you to, that what is before you is a mere piece of paper to the extent that it is not certified, can we take any other proceedings on the strength of that mere piece of paper? That is what makes this issue a proper preliminary objection for resolution one way or the other before we can go into the trial. Secondly is the issue of the order of the court. I want to address this issue as follows. We are guided by the Constitution and other laws, the Standing Orders and to an extent, the manuals that this House publishes from time to time, to inform both these Members and the members of the public who interact with this House. My research has revealed that the latest manual issued by this House is a manual entitled “ Removal from Office of County Governors and Deputy County Governorsthrough Impeachment, an easy-to-use manual on the procedures and rules ”. That manual, on the face of it, was published by the Directorate of Legal Services and the Senate Liaison Office in the year 2025, which is this year. Part three of that manual is entitled “ Judicial Proceedings against Impeachment”. This is the position this House has communicated in that manual at page 60, which is the very last page of that manual. There are two subtitles at page 60 of that manual. Subtitle one, Comply with Court"
