"content": "On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Constitution of the Republic of Kenya is superior to any other law. Section 35, I believe, gives the right to Kenyans to get information that the State is holding. I put it to the State that they are holding information as to why this director’s term was terminated and that is the information that the House is asking for. This is not information for the President. Yes, he did hire and fire. The House is asking why the President fired this man. We are asking for reasons and we are not questioning the authority of the President. We are saying that Kenyans need to know why this man’s contract was terminated. It is as simple as that. Is the Assistant Minister in order to hide under the State Corporations Act and tell the people of Kenya that the President hired and fired and so, that is the end of the world?"
