27 Sep 2017 in Senate:
Order, Senator! Please, take your seat. There is an intervention from Sen. Cheruiyot. I will add you three minutes. You were supposed to have concluded but because you represent a shade of opinion of a group that is currently not in the House, I will give you more minutes. Sen. Cheruiyot, what is your point of order?

Hon. Members, it is true that indeed, this is her maiden speech. I do not want to upset the tradition of this House by allowing interruption of a maiden speech. However, the issue that has been raised, I may as well raise it suo moto. The Senator needs to give proof of documents to support her contention that we have a polling centre where 5,000 voters voted, notwithstanding that the maximum number of registered voters per polling station is 700. Sen. Pareno, do you have any documentary evidence that you can table.

27 Sep 2017 in Senate:
My ruling is that you ought not to be interrupted. Therefore, you will not address yourself to the point of order that has been raised. However, on my own motion I have raised the issue regarding whether you have any documentary proof regarding that assertion. That will be beneficial to the Senators and members of the public who are watching you.

I want to draw the attention of the House to Standing Order No. 94 that provides for responsibility of statement of fact. “(1) A Senator shall be responsible for the accuracy of any facts that the Senator alleges to be true and may be required to substantiate any such facts instantly.

Thank you, it is so ordered. In the next sitting, you will table that evidence. We have the following Members desiring to contribute: Sen. Cheruiyot, Sen. Langat, Sen. Mahamud and Sen. Mwangi Githiomi. Sen. Mwangi, at one moment you were the first on the intervention but you withdrew your card and as a result, you are number four. You will have to follow the queue notwithstanding that at one moment you were the first one. So, all factors remaining constant you will be number four. Proceed, Sen. Cheruiyot.

Clerks-at-the-Table, I direct that each contributor be added two minutes because five minutes is too short. So, allow each of them seven minutes.
