    "content": "get uncomfortable. The Constitution is very clear in Article 47. It says every person, including Sen. (Prof.) Kithure Kindiki, has the right to administrative action that is expeditious, efficient, lawful, reasonable, and procedurally fair. If a right of a fundamental freedom of a person has been or is likely to be adversely affected by the administrative action, the person has a right to be given written reasons for the action. In line with this Article 47, the National Assembly, in its Standing Orders, provided a long procedure of how to notify the Deputy Speaker and the Speaker if you want to remove them. You cannot say and it is not legally sound to argue that you are going to engage in a serious constitutional process to remove a constitutional office holder and pretend to say that the other Articles of the Constitution are not going to apply. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a House of record. The process we are going through will be in history for the next a 100 or 200 years. This House led by its Majority Leader then, Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen went to the High Court to challenge procedures that have been flouted by the Executive and the National Assembly. This House has just got a ruling from the Supreme Court on laws that had been flouted. This House cannot continue calling itself the ‘Upper’ House and run a removal of its Deputy Speaker in a kangaroo manner. You must point that out."
