Allow me 10 seconds to read this Bible verse to Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki, as it is now known that I am the guy who posts and reads Biblical verses. It is Daniel 3:16-18. I dedicate it to Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki and all who are in his situation. It says- “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand---”

Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki I emphasize Verse 18. It says- “But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki the very best. He has a great future. The future is for those who are courageous enough to swim against the current. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, there can be no worse violation of our Constitution than that. There is no one---. There was never a time we sat in the Senate Business Committee to approve a Member who is not in the Senate Chamber to vote. It is impossible. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in fact, it is the greatest violation of our Constitution. Please, do not go there. You already have the numbers to remove the Deputy Speaker. Do not rape our Constitution further.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I insist that allowing a person who is not in the Chamber and not within the vicinity of Parliament to vote, is not only rape. I would rather use ‘defilement’ because it is worse.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is impossible. It is not for you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, to allow. It is impossible and unconstitutional. There is absolutely no basis for you to defile this Constitution. You have the numbers. Do not go there.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I congratulate the petitioners for bringing this Petition to the Senate. This House has continued to receive important petitions on matters related to devolution. One of the subjects that has remained contentious is the manner in which human resources is run in the counties. Counties are smaller entities and they have had challenges dealing with recurrent expenditure.
