"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to adopt the argument brought forward by hon. Mwau. In addition, you will remember that last week, Prof. Saitoti tabled the complaint from the American Ambassador. That complaint is the same document I attempted to table here, which you took a week to look at to find out whether it met the threshold of documents to be tabled in this House. Thereafter, you ruled that the names of hon. Members mentioned then be expunged from the records of this House because that document did not meet the threshold requirement for documents to be tabled in the House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I request that, on the same basis you ruled that that document did not conform to the threshold required for tabling in this House, my name be expunged from the records of this House. Secondly, Prof. Saitoti did say here that so far, nothing has been found to connect me with the said accusations. So, I would want him to state categorically to this House that I am cleared until today. Investigations may continue for 20 or 30 years. If my name has to re-appear in the records of this House, let it re-appear after the investigations or anything else they may find on me. I demand that he states here that I am cleared, so that the issue pending in the papers about us, as Members of this House, and especially myself, is cleared now."
