    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I just want to comment on what has been said again and again. This House is not abolishing the Rome Statute today. It is an expression of the feeling of this House. It is a Motion and we ask you to rule in favour that this House cannot be intimidated not to express its feelings and ask the Government to do what it takes. This is what America and other governments have done, because they found that the Rome Statute was oppressive to its people. That is all we want to express. We expect our Government to take the responsibility to free the people of Kenya from this oppression. We chose the International Criminal Court (ICC) because we wanted justice and now we have found that it is not where you will find justice. It is something that is used by whoever wants to remove you. They can run to the ICC and cause harm to you. That is why we are asking now for justice. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could you, please, make a ruling on this matter?"
