Two, LSK has enjoined into the case of the governors in the Supreme Court. So, they are not coming with clean hands. They are part of the case of the people who have taken us to court and then they want to come back and mediate. Secondly, they have invited the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Speaker of the Senate. The Speakers of both Houses do not sit in mediation committees. They do not have a vote.

The LSK cannot purport to write to invite me to a mediation in a hotel when the mediation which is provided for in the Constitution is for the Speaker to read the Members and submit them to the Senate. The LSK President, Mr. Gichuhi, leads a team. The Member for Mathare is here. Mr. John Ohaga, Mr. Allen Waiyaki, Hon. Lusaka Kenneth Makelo, Sheila and Peter Kimuyu are part of the mediation.

30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. (Dr.) Laboso, for those who do not know, came to Parliament through a by-election after the loss of her sister. Those of us who were in the 10th Parliament such as Hon. Mbadi and Hon. Washiali are aware of that. Her great sister Lorna passed on in a plane crash with our former elder and Minister for Roads then, Hon. Kipkalya Kones. She was elected in the by- election that ensued. We were together with her in the 11th Parliament and she was a dedicated Deputy Speaker. I am not saying Hon. Cheboi is not.
