• 18 Mar 2015 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof) Kindiki): On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir. I support what the Senate Minority Leader has said and also the request by the Senator for Kisumu is legitimate but I am wondering whether it is in order to just accept that request either expressly or by conduct without the maker of that request, that is, Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'- Nyong'o, standing to request under Standing Order No.53, so that we postpone the voting the way we do it normally under Standing Order No.53, rather than just take consensus customarily without following procedure.
