"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you and I take responsibility because we were the leaders of the House. We opted to go the Committee way and many people, including this Chamber and around the country, were not satisfied with the outcome of the proceedings of the Committee. In fact, if you remember, the Senator for Murang’a County, who was then the Deputy Speaker, had very unkind words to say on the Floor of the House on the outcome of the process. The provisions of the law and the Standing Orders do not vest any powers in the House to overturn the decision of the Committee. That led to very acrimonious exchanges. As a senior lawyer, I read very painstaking charges leveled against the Governor of Murang’a County and the evidence adduced. I was not satisfied that the verdict of the Committee was correct. However, we live with it because it was a Committee of the House. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
