    "content": "Let me know guide you now as the Chair. If you receive a response from a CS - and it appears that hon. Lentoimaga is agreeing with hon. Nakuleu that, the response is inadequate or insufficient or incorrect - then all you needed to do is just call the hon. Nakuleu, tell him: “Look at this. We do not believe it ourselves. Can we postpone the making of the response to another date until we have summoned the CS before our Committee, for you to come and prosecute the matter there?” Of what use is the Chair of the Committee to come and read a Statement that he believes is not even correct. Hon. Lentoimaga even says he has worked in Turkana County. As he was reading the Statement, he knew it was not correct. It is not fair. Hon. Lentoimaga, you should have just told hon. Nakuleu: We have received inadequate information from the CS and you actually do not believe in it yourself. If the hon. Nakuleu confirms that he also does not believe in anything that is said there, then you agree with him as the Member seeking the request, so that the people on whose behalf he is speaking for know that, indeed, he is pursuing the matter to some logical conclusion. Instead of engaging in further altercation here, I will direct that hon. Lentoimaga revisits this matter and summon the CS. Let the hon. Nakuleu be summoned to appear alongside the CS. And because I know the Committees are quite large, I have encouraged Committees from time to time to split themselves into sub-committees. It may make the work a lot easier because you have a lot of requests. I sympathize with the amount of workload by way of requests for Statements that are placed on your Committees. I am not surprised that you do not have time to deal with other very pressing matters which you deal with them till late in the night from time to time. The best you can do is to summon the CS, invite the hon. Members that have sought Statements so that the response you get will, at least, satisfy them to some reasonable extent. So, revisit the matter, invite both the CS and hon. Nakuleu. Is that okay, hon. Nakuleu? I do appreciate that people make interventions here, but not until we hear from hon. Nakuleu."
