    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I almost thought that I heard my own things when you gave the Communication. When did the National Assembly consider this House more important for the Miscellaneous Amendment Bills? I wonder. This is an admission of guilt. We have refused to follow up on certain orders such as the issue of Huduma Number because the National Assembly did not forward that Bill to this House for it to be considered. I hope that the President and those who advise him are listening, that if you try to ignore the Senate there is nowhere you will go. Right now, we are in a crisis. This House must stand firm to be able to fight for democracy in this country. When we came up with the Kenya Constitution 2010 and we set up these two Houses, it was to ensure that the “Wanjikus” are fully protected. A few of us can sit here and pass certain laws without following the law and then take it to the President for assent. The President will assume that even those who are advising him have gone through all processes."
