(Sen. (Prof) Kindiki): On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I do not want to give, although I know the number. I was listening to Sen. Ongoro. She was making a very important contribution that relates to a very serious matter that is relevant to our country today. This is about the security incident. However, I was just wondering whether she is in order in terms of the rules of relevance and if whatever she is saying applies to the Calendar of the Second Session of the Senate.

(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank you, for this opportunity. I am gratified, having sat here and heard the very useful comments that my colleague Senators have made in support of this Motion. Madam Temporary Speaker, I do not want to really repeat what has been said. The only other point that I will add in reply is that it is hoped, as we have said before, that during this Session, we will spend a little more time debating and passing Bills. This is because last year, we did a bit of work in terms of passing Bills, ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I was very satisfied until the Senate Minority Leader opened again this issue. Mr. Speaker, Sir, my point of order is very limited to what happens if a Member asks an erroneous question. For example, the distinguished Senator for Kisumu is asking a question which is not based on facts. He has made an attribution that so-and-so said this, but when you look at the quote that he is giving, it is not based on facts. This is because I was with the Senate Majority Leader in the same meeting and he ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I thank the Senator for Mombasa for thinking through and bringing this Motion of Adjournment. From the outset, I want to say that I send my condolences to those who lost their lives and to their families. I also sympathize and pray with those who got injured, remembering what I watched on television particularly the situation of Satrin Osinya. It was really painful and difficult. I remember everyone who has a child will always feel the pain of what the child is going through. Our prayers are with the ...
