"content": "as you wish. You must hit the water. We have taken a dive and we must hit the water. After yesterday’s proceedings, we will be sending a very dangerous signal for this House to start--- It is Sen. Orengo who said yesterday that at no time should a House of Parliament ever imagine limiting its jurisdiction on its own Motion. The world over, everybody looks for more and more jurisdiction. Look at the judgments of Chief Justice Madan; his says, jurisdiction is so sweet that even when you are given, you grab it. This is what this House must do; we must allow the Committee to go on. Let us face anything that will come along the way. As far as I am concerned and from what you have said, we have not been served with any court restraining orders. We have not been served any court proceedings, apart from what you have described as “papers from town” that were brought here by our distinguished colleague from Homa Bay. We have not seen anything and we cannot, therefore, encourage any act or omission that appears to indicate that we are limiting our jurisdiction on our own Motion."
