    "content": "Mrs. Odhiambo-Mabona also sought the direction of the Speaker on whether a claim of unconstitutionality needed to be first disposed of, or whether the House could proceed with the contested business and return to the question later. The issue is best answered by appreciating the nature of the defect that is alleged when a claim of unconstitutionality is made. It is the most serious claim that a Member of this House can make. It is a caution to all Members that they could be proceeding on a nullity as contemplated by Article 2(4) of the Constitution. It draws attention to Article 3 of the Constitution, the obligation of every person to respect, uphold and defend the Constitution, Article 10 on the values and principles of governance, Article 259 on construing the Constitution, among many other provisions of the Constitution. It is, therefore, a claim that merits the most urgent and careful attention and action."
