    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I had joined the Senate Minority Leader and the former Prime Minister in the other House to witness the swearing in of our elected Member of Parliament for Malindi Constituency. While there, I noticed something very strange. During that swearing in moment, it was the Members of the Opposition who were standing in honour of that swearing in ceremony. There is need for the two Speakers to consult. In this House, when the Senator was taking oath, the Senators were seated and doing their thing. Procedure would have required that both sides of the House stand to respect the new Senator in keeping with the traditions, not just of this House, but of the Commonwealth Parliaments."
