"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, 10 minutes before the start of the sitting, I was with the Chairperson outside there with Sen. Kibiru and Sen. Wamatangi. He never mentioned this to me. When he left, because I got to their table when he was almost leaving, he told me he was going to see the Speaker. I want Sen. Malalah to make it clear whether he was given instructions by the Chairperson to tell me that I would be moving the Motion or if he was told by the Chairperson that he would talk to me to move the Motion. There is all the difference. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let us not take this matter casually because I have had serious issues arising from what the Leader of Majority has said. Being the Vice Chairperson, I am not even aware that the Chairperson wrote asking for investigation of Members. My integrity and what I stand for is so critical. I am ready to defend this at whatever level. Therefore, I would rather apply for deferment of the Motion to help the Chairperson – because this matter has not been discussed before the Committee. If it was, then I was absent. I need to be apprised and updated on what transpired in the Committee other than anybody who takes things lightly to make the kind of comments that Sen. Malalah is making before the House. It is wrong and improper. I will speak to the Motion. I am prepared because I listened to what happened but let us clarify that matter because I am not running away from my duty."
