"content": " I did not say that. What I said and the HANSARD can bear me witness is that as I sit on this Chair now, I have not heard anybody talk about a vacancy in any seat. All I know – and which is common knowledge now is that the name of Sen. Moses Wetangula was not read out. The reason it was not read out may be administrative or it could be anything else. It is an issue I am willing to deal with. But the thing I will find difficult to allow, Sen. Orengo, with all due respect to you because you are my senior in the profession, is for us to debate an issue that is not currently before this House. It will be unfair to the House and to hon. Members, and I do not think it will be a good thing for me to allow, or to use Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale’s words, I will be setting an extremely bad precedent if I allowed us to discuss an issue that is not currently before the House. I heard you say that the name of the Senator for Bungoma was not read out; it is only on that point that we can discuss this issue."
