During the 1998 Bomb Blast, there is an allegation that there were several staff who worked for Co-operative Bank, that were illegally dismissed following the injuries they sustained. Is the Ministry aware? What have they done about that matter?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, you must protect me because I get surprised when a Senior Counsel like Sen. Omogeni, who was in this House and passed the Cybercrime Act, would want to gag the police from doing their work. Can Sen. Asige substantiate her allegation of abduction?

It is under Standing Order No.105. Did I hear the Senator for Kakamega say that he is not standing the lies? What evidence does he have to adduce to this House that what we are listening to are lies? Can he provide and table in the House?
