    "content": "The Office of the Speaker of the National Assembly received a letter from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) dated 12th October 2017 requesting that the National Assembly investigates and takes necessary action against the Member for Embakasi East and the Member for Starehe Constituency for unethical conduct and breach of privilege relating to a scuffle between them within the precincts of Parliament on 10th October, 2018. The Speaker noted the contents of the letter and referred this matter to the Committee on Powers and Privileges for consideration. On 9th November 2017, the Speaker received a Petition signed by Bernard Abuya Momanyi, a resident of Embakasi East Constituency. The Petitioner claimed that the Member acted in a manner that demeaned the office contrary to the provisions of Chapter 6 of the Constitution and in contravention of Section 16(e) of the Parliamentary Powers and Privileges Act 2017."
