    "content": " Order, Sen. Orengo! One, we will check on the HANSARD, because when you start by questioning whether somebody heard, you are only telling us that you heard better than everybody else. So, we need to verify and we will give you your dues, if it is the correct position. If not, we will also give you the opposite.” I have checked the HANSARD and I confirm that Sen. Orengo deserves praise for being alert. In fact, more alert than the Chair. Sen. Murkomen was contributing to the Motion on the Honours and said:- “The President has two very critical functions. On one hand, he is the Head of Government, but on the other, he is the father of everyone. He is the Head of State. When performing the functions of the Head of State--- It was at that point that Sen. Orengo rose on a point of order and asked:- “Mr. Speaker, Sir, did you hear what Sen. Murkomen said; that the President is the father of everybody? The President is not my father. Kenya is not a feudal State, but I agree that he is the Head of State.” Then I said:- “Order, Sen. Orengo! Did you hear or listen to Sen. Murkomen?” He replied:- “Mr. Speaker, Sir, I heard and listened to him.” Then I said:- “If you did so, you should not, therefore, put words in his mouth. He said that the President is the father of the nation, but did not say that he is the father of everybody.” Then, he challenged me to check on the HANSARD because he listened very carefully. I just want to confirm that he listened very carefully and I did not listen carefully. Thank you."
