On that same night, after we met with many other Members, I went and visited a patient at the Nairobi Hospital. On my way to the Nation Television (NTV), I passed through the Members of Parliament bar, and there were over 20 Members of Parliament from all the political parties. I stayed there for about 10 minutes. Hon. Waluke is arguing that I was presenting Hon. Wetangula with the weekend “budget” ahead of his rallies in Western Kenya. Hon. Wetangula was my friend even before I joined Parliament. He is a respectable leader in this country. I am sure that the Standing Orders of both the Senate and the National Assembly do not say that a Member cannot engage with another Member from either side of the political divide."}
