Member may at any time rise in his or her place and seek leave to move the adjournment of the House for the purpose of discussing a definite matter of urgent national importance. Mr. Speaker, Sir, while heading to this House this afternoon, many of us ran into groups of Kenyans demonstrating and expressing their disaffection with a scenario that is one that this House cannot ignore. That is a scenario over the sharp rise in the price of fuel which has caused a domino effect to the extent that the cost of living is spiraling out of control for the ordinary Kenyan. I plead with the Chair and this House to take note of this development and set aside time for this House to ventilate on this matter with a view of focusing national energy and attention on this matter so that we can find a solution. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
