"content": "a rich man but humble like me. It started with Kshs3million but it has grown to Kshs9 million. The last time I saw him, he was looking like a 70 year old man when he is actually about 55 years. We have to look at these things seriously. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the last point that I would like to bring to the attention of the Senate Majority Leader (Sen.(Prof.) Kindiki as I support this Motion is Clause,16 which talks about the conduct constituting breach of privilege. It reads: “The Committee of Powers and Privileges may find a Member to be in breach of privilege if the Member---- I want us to think about it also. There are times when, pursuant to the provisions of this Constitution, I might choose to address the County Assembly of Kakamega or the Speaker might allow me to address the County Assembly of Turkana. If I am not cushioned here as a Senator, some of the things I might utter in those meetings could put me into trouble. This is the time for us to dissect these small things even if it means splitting hairs. That is why we are here to make laws. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, having said those things I had seen, I want to thank the Senate Majority Leader for leading us here. I also want to assure him that the issue of intolerance is real. We are waiting for the case of Nandi, which has touched me because Nandi and Kakamega, we are brothers and sisters. The Leader of Majority may not know that because he comes from the other end. Nandi and Kakamega share so much in common. We have inter-married and we do a lot of trade, just like our ancestors used to do barter trade. The issue of Nandi is worrying us."
