    "content": "Hon. Members, this is a Statement sought under the period called Zero Hour from 6:30 p.m. What you needed to know is that Hon. Kemosi has already made that indication. He wants to discuss the frequent arrests made on Fridays or public holidays. It might be that the people arrested are too busy during the other days and they are only available to visit police stations on Fridays and public holidays, and then they meet their nemesis. There you have it. Hon. Kemosi, it will be at 6:30 p.m. You can discuss the matter. Hon. Members, before we proceed, I would like to know whether the following Members are present in the House: Hon. Ali Haji, Member for Mandera South Constituency; Hon. Cheruiyot Gladwell Jesire, Member for Baringo County; Hon. Gaal Ahmed Bashane, Member for Tarbaj Constituency; Hon. Mukwe Lusweti, Member for Kabuchai Constituency; Hon. Okoth Odhiambo, Member for Kibra; Hon. Okelo Odoyo, Member for Nyando Constituency; Hon. Alfred Wekesa Sambu, Member for Webuye East Constituency and Hon. Silas Tiren, Member for Moiben Constituency. I had to read out this list because the information that is with the Clerk is that those Members have not registered electronically and/or have not picked their cards. I can say for sure that Hon. Alfred Wekesa Sambu is indisposed. He has notified me and he has my approval to be absent. Just notify him that when he resumes, he needs to register and pick his card. I know Hon. Ken Okoth has been indisposed but was in the House last week. Again, he was absent with permission. I have to specify that aspect of “with permission” so that the villagers do not think that, that is the ground to start writing to me about absence. At least, I know Hon. Sambu and Hon. Okoth have been away with my permission. So, they are not in violation of Article 103. For other Members, I do not know the reasons why they have not either registered and, if they have registered, why they have not collected their cards. Member for Nyando, Hon. Okelo, you should register electronically. Now that I know publicly that you have not, you can bet you are unlikely to have a chance to speak this afternoon and, possibly, for the remainder of this Session. You are a very active Member here. There is no reason why you should not have a card. Please register and pick the card. Hon. Okelo, do you want to say that you have not registered for some reason?"
