Murkomen","speaker_title":"The Senate Leader of Majority","speaker":{"id":440,"legal_name":"Onesimus Kipchumba Murkomen","slug":"kipchumba-murkomen"},"content":"If you say that we can wear African attire there is a danger that a fully dressed Maasai like Sen. Olekina will come here with a rungu, sword and a spear. Considering the passionate contributions of people like Sen. Olekina, with a sword and a spear in his hands, we cannot guarantee the safety of the House. I can almost understand why you took time to decide on the men’s side. In the same breath, if Sen. (Dr.) Ali dresses fully as a Somali elder, there will be problems in this House. For the ladies, you made a very good consideration and for the men you will need further retreat, research and a well-documented ruling on that matter."}
