    "content": "You have said that you are alive to the provisions of our Constitution. What I would like you to guard jealously is the provisions of Article 94 of the Constitution which says that no person, including the Governor of CBK, or body, other than Parliament, has the power to make provisions having the force of law in Kenya, except under authority conferred by this Constitution or by legislation. This House does not act in vain. We acted in September last year. We passed an amendment in the Finance Bill to make provisions where the Governor of CBK would enact regulations that he would table in this House within 30 days. We know him and how he acts. That is why there have been very spirited attempts to intimidate the Judiciary. Instead of making regulations and tabling them before this House, he cobbled some people called Wajibika Society. They went to court and asked it to nullify the provisions of the Bill that we made here. I know that they have lost the case in court."
