On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I just want Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to strike out the words “unprecedented wisdom,” and just leave it as “wisdom” because if he says it is unprecedented---

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I think your explanation on this matter will suffice, because I do believe that it could not be deliberate that the Speaker’s Office could have decided to bring such distinction. But I would also agree that on the administrative front, we should guard that this must never happen again. This is because we treat all counties equally. In fact, the equality of counties is best demonstrated in the Senate. That is why we say whether you got 800,000 votes or 20,000, your vote is one in this Senate. That is the ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo is not right to pick on Sen. Kanainza’s dress code because if you look at the Standing Orders and the Speaker’s Rules, they are very elaborate on what one can put on. They do not forbid you from putting on uniform so long as you have a tie and in good attire. Let me just inform him that CORD had a rally and it was encouraged that people dress in this attire. Even if you came it would have been right to have your former school’s uniform ...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Bear with me for taking this opportunity to inform the Chair that we will be leaving shortly. Also, for reasons that I wanted the Chair to communicate tomorrow; this Senate’s best wishes to the Muslims who will be celebrating Idd. Usually, this Idd is not a public holiday. It marks the completion of the holy pilgrimage. So, I wish the Muslims a happy Idd and wish that this Senate will communicate to the Muslims countrywide a happy Idd ul Hajj tomorrow.

Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for your kind consideration. I want to send an apology to Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo. I have a flight to catch to Mombasa and I requested the Chair to give me a chance on a matter of priority. The children of poor Kenyans are all at home.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I caught your eye and therefore I want to proceed. I want to thank you for this opportunity and equally support this Motion. At this point in time, as we speak, the young poor Kenyans are out of school in their homes. I passed by few areas in Nairobi and I saw most of the private school are in session. That gives us great pain because it is only through education that we can bridge the gap of
