"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would hate to educate a lawyer about a law. This country has other sources of law. One of them is Statute which is the process through which that Bill has gone and is now waiting for assent. Tomorrow, when you go to State House, you will tell the President to sign it. Another way is precedence, in a common law jurisdiction like ours, a declaration by the Supreme Court forms part of the law of this country. Therefore, the Supreme Court has said that this resolution must be made. I can see that Sen. Omogeni and Sen. Faki are agreeing with me that a judgment of the Supreme Court forms part of our law in this country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, could you kindly ask the Senator for Murang’a County to take time, read my Statement and address those issues because he is continuing to embarrass himself as he pronounces himself on this matter?"
