    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, protect me from Sen. Cherarkey after he has made reference in the local dialect and requested that I speak to the House with it. Firstly, I laud this gentleman called Laban Omusundi. He has not only been filing public interest petitions in this House on matters like what we are debating today, but also on matters that cover on laws that we legislate in this House. In fact, today, the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights (JLAC) has a report we were meant to table on another Petition he filed regarding the introduction of a framework on the recall of Members of County Assemblies (MCAs). In that Petition, he says that the law does not provide for that. As a patriotic Kenyan, I would like to appreciate him because we have dealt with more than three petitions at the Committee on JLAC by this same gentleman. I needed to appreciate him, so that as he continues to do what most of us cannot do, he should know he is doing that because he is a patriotic Kenyan doing what is expected of us, not only to keep the legislature on toes in terms of enactment of laws but also in public interest 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."
