Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of two little boys whose mother is dead and cremated being left in servitude in a foreign country is so critical that I request that this Question be deferred until the Assistant Minister comes to report to this House, at the end of the seven days that the children are back in Kenya, safe and landed.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to thank the Assistant Minister for coming to the site as soon as he received the Question. However, there were two contracts on this road, which runs from Kisumu to Kabrengu. The section between Kakamega and Kisumu is the one we are referring to. The section between Kakamega and Webuye was completed the way this one was completed and, in fact, that contractor went on to clear the bushes and construct the shoulders of the road. Why has the contractor on this particular section not done a similar job?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this road which is very narrow, very dangerous and which is the seat of fatal accidents, was constructed in 1962. In 2004, hon.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise under Standing Order No.97 that demands of a Member to be responsible for the accuracy or discourages Members from deliberately giving false information to the House. Hon. Richard Onyonka has clarified a very sensitive issue, where an hon. Member had deliberately given us false information by saying that the Luos are marginalized.

Even the Kisii, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Allow me to read Standing Order No.97(1)(f). It says:- “Conduct is grossly disorderly if the Member concerned deliberately gives false information to the House;” I am raising this because when the hon. Member said; “my people” and said that they were marginalized in a constituency that had more than one community, I took it to mean his ethnic group. That being the case, as I prosecute my point of order, we need direction from the Chair because there are utterances, in a year of elections, that can ignite violence or hostilities in communities. ...
