    "content": "On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. Hon. Millie raised a very fundamental question. This particular Bill is a subject of public debate. It is an issue of a constitutional nature. Even the Mover, in his own speech, is trying to say that the absence of a law means that what the governors are doing is wrong. I want to plead with you that we address the particular issue as to where this Bill should have originated. This will hurt even this House. The Senators are lying that we are helping them to “fight” the governors. They have gone ahead to rank themselves above the National Assembly, yet their work is just to deal with local issues. The Senators are hoodwinking us. It is important that we talk for Kenya. It is not without reason that we created the devolved governments. So, I want to plead with you to give a ruling on that particular issue. Where should this Bill have originated? This is not one of the roles of the Senate."
