    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is a point of order. Our Standing Orders are very clear that one must declare interest. We have just heard our colleague from Athi River vehemently refuting a statement, but we know very well there are no cows or there might be very few cows coming from his constituency. I am not sure there are even goats in that constituency apart from the fact that KMC has a factory station there. Is it not prudent for the Member to declare his interest in this matter? For him to give such a vehement defence of the operations of a factory in a House that is supposed to oversee the factory is suspect. On whose behalf is he speaking? Is there a peculiar interest? Is it the employment of his constituents as the interest? If anything, as a Member, he should be interested in ensuring that even if the management is doing well, it does better. He is here to oversee. I think it is prudent for him to declare his interest and to be very clear about his specific interest. He is my good friend. We need to know that specific interest before we take his words seriously."
