trying to draw incidences. This is a Parliament of the Republic of Kenya. This is not a political rally somewhere in Vihiga. Is it in order to allow him to profile my county? He can say that during funerals over the weekends, in baby showers and other places, but not here in my presence. We are peace-loving people from Nandi. Is he in order under Standing Order No.110 to try to impute improper conduct about my people in Nandi County? You have heard Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has celebrated the great people of Nandi? Is he in order?

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order Nos. 105 and 110, is it in order for my brother, Sen. Osotsi to incite the people of Aldai and Vihiga by alleging and stating as a matter of fact on the Floor of the House that there are border clashes in Serem and Vihiga? This has not been recorded in any police station. I shudder because of that. I do not want to leave this House at 6.30 p.m. when we have people fighting in Serem and Vihiga. Can the Senator withdraw and apologize? Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I withdrew my remarks ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I have heard that the Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts, has sent an apology. As such, I request your guidance on two issues under Standing Order No.1. One, there were allegations that the Cabinet Secretary had written to you and your counterpart in the National Assembly, requesting to appear to answer questions specifically to the Majority Leader of the National Assembly, Hon. Ichungwa and Sen. Cherarkey. I need your direction on that letter. The practice In jurisdictions all over the world is that no one directs or even requests to appear before Parliament. ...

Last time, we censured the Cabinet Secretary for Health for continuously avoiding appearing before the House. I request your direction to let the Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts, be summoned to appear before this House. We cannot continue to raise issues--- I have seen my brother, Sen. Chute, had a question concerning the construction of Marsabit County Stadium. I am also asking about athletics and volleyball among other agenda concerning sports in this country. I woke up at 5:00 a.m. to practice like a night runner for this sitting, only to appear in the morning and ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. From the onset, I want to support the sentiments of my colleagues who have contributed before me. I think as a country we must agree that there is a Kiswahili saying that says “ Mbuzi anakula kwa urefu wa kambayake.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me with the indulgence of the Standing Orders. Why should you take somebody from Nairobi to nominate him in Garissa, Mandera, Nandi or Kericho county assemblies? We must be honest with ourselves. The biggest problem we see is in our county assemblies. It is not even in these other positions that ...
