However, let us stick to the Motion. I refer to NASA and people who are outside this august House with a light touch. Do not take it so personal as if it is the end of the story. Let us contribute, particularly new Members, but add something just to flavour your contribution. It will be better than you standing there and hitting hard, thinking that you will be noticed by your party leader, who is in State House. Sorry about that, he will not notice when you leave this House. I, therefore, take this opportunity to thank Hon. Julius Melly ...

whatever has been discussed here because it is good. Sugar-cane farming was introduced in this country when I was in primary school. Farmers were very enthusiastic. They would all rush to plant sugar-cane. I think they are regretting today because of what has been mentioned; a lot of problems in the sugar industry. No wonder they have moved from the sugar producing areas in Western Kenya to the northern parts of the Rift Valley – hoping that they will get prompt payment, but it has been very difficult to pay our farmers. Therefore, Hon. Washiali, with your experience and proximity ...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I did not take the remarks kindly from the Hon. Member because when we come to this House, first, we have to debate and do a bit of consultations out there in various ministries. So, I do not know why she should be concerned that we are not here. I am here and it is wrong for her to come to this House to tell us ---

Thank you very much Hon. Deputy Speaker. First of all, I want to take this opportunity to congratulate you for having been elected the Speaker. You have been a very good guider in the previous Parliament. Secondly, I also want to thank Kenyans for having come out in large numbers to vote the way they did. The problem is not Raila. The Supreme Court was very clear. We all have heard. It was technicalities and irregularities that actually made the Supreme Court to throw away the election of His Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta. For you to come here and say it ...

removed, we are all going to be happy. All of us do not have a spare country. Kenya is our country and therefore, I want Members of Parliament to please be above this notion of getting these ideas that Raila in 1992 was--- That is not helping this country at all. Let us put aside the issues that affect our coalitions, parties and move forward. Whether you are in NASA or Jubilee we have to move forward. The problems are very clear. We have only said that the referees who were there at that time must go. What is wrong ...

Hon. Speaker, I want to say that we love our country. We do not have a spare country. We have all agreed. The election date has been set for 26th October 2017. We are ready but only if the field is levelled - the stones and thorns are removed. Then we will come and play. We will go for the elections. If Jubilee beats us we will accept and life continues. So, there is nothing wrong with the verdict given by the Supreme Court. Let us not also blame anybody for the same. There were technicalities and irregularities that we ...
