Thank you, Sen. Halima. Your request is not granted because the Chair finds that this is not a Motion concerning counties. This is because the function that is supposed to be done under the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution is a function of the national Government. Therefore, we should just vote via simple majority. I, therefore, wish to put the Question.

(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. This is a very good Motion, touching on public health, which is one of the big pillars that this economy and country can build on, if we want to see the country prospering. Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to thank Prof. Lesan, who is a well known Professor of Medicine in this country - in fact, I am told that he is a Professor of Restorative Dentistry – for moving a Motion which is very good and well thought out. ...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The situation in the country is very sad. Even after we had a very fierce debate here last week and gave our suggestions, as late as today, we have heard that there are people who have been killed in Mpeketoni, Wajir and Mandera. Madam Temporary Speaker, as I said last week, and stand by it, our country needs to have a modernized security system.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I thought that Sen. Omar Hassan was rising to confirm that we usually take tea together. Madam Temporary Speaker, the impression that we sometimes create to the public is that these leaders who are supposedly inciting each other do not even meet or shake hands, yet the truth is that we debate here and say what we say passionately. But at the end of the day, we are friends. At the end of the day, I still look up to Sen. Orengo as my mentor. At the end of the day, Sen. Wetangula is still my senior. ...
