"content": " I rise to contribute to this very important point of order. I would like to agree with hon. Members that this House is the supreme law-making body in the Republic of Kenya. As Wole Soyinka once said, \"A tiger does not need to shout about its tigritude; it pounces\". I do believe that we do not need to shout about our tigritude, but we should pounce on the problem. The problem before us is not really that we want to gag the Press, nor is it that the Press wants to muzzle the House. The problem is a misunderstanding over what happened in Parliament on that day that I was not here myself, because I was on official duty in Sweden, but now I am here."
