"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. With great respect to Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o, I do not think that that statement should be left to just go and be recorded in the HANSARD for posterity. It is a very serious statement. Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o is also a very senior legislator. That statement is an extremely dangerous because he said that everybody knows that the most important circular in the Jubilee Government is the one that he has referred to. Unless he tables it because he has been a Cabinet Minister himself and he has referred to a document that he purports exists in his own words. It will be incumbent upon him to either substantiate by tabling that circular like Sen. Sang has requested or withdraw and apologise, not just to the House, but to the entire Republic. He made it in the hallowed walls of the Senate where unless you make an order as the presiding officer of the Senate, then this is very dangerous. We are live on television talking about our nation and everybody is watching, including our children. What message is he sending out? That is extremely dangerous statement coming from such an important leader who sits as the Chairperson of the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC). There must be an apology given."
