Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker. You know, there is a challenge of time zones in Laikipia. Therefore, we should understand the Senator for Laikipia. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also had an opportunity of being here when your assistant or a person who used to work in your office was testifying in a matter that we shall discuss later. He is the Chief of Staff and he did very well. So, it is upon us to also help the people working in our offices, so that they can become good leaders and take up after us. I thank ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First and foremost, I laud the Committee led by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. That was a job well done. I was with you on one of the days when you were doing investigations. You sat until past 1.00 a.m. That is a lot of commitment. We are proud we gave you that opportunity and we have learnt lessons. Your leadership was good. Second, I congratulate Gov. Kawira for getting an opportunity to go back to Meru County. Go and serve the people of Meru. They voted for you overwhelmingly. Over 200,000 is quite a huge number. ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would not have wished to disturb the flow of thought of the good professor. However, he is quoting a non-existent Standing Order. He is talking about Standing Order No.81, which is not relevant. Standing Order No.81 talks about the right to be heard.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion of having 11 of us look at the evidence that has been brought by Meru County Assembly. First and foremost, all of us in this Senate enjoy the same space and scope of duty. Looking at the list of Members nominated to serve in the Committee, I am satisfied that they will do the work ahead of them. I am particularly impressed that the SBC and the Leadership of the House, have given first timers and young Senators an opportunity to serve in this Committee. My colleagues Sen. Thang’wa, ...

He does not appear to be what people impute. However, I will include him in that list of the young people because he is also coming in as a first timer. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not really fair for anybody to impute that because the Governor for Meru is a woman, then women senators be given special consideration. It then means that next time when a male governor is here, he will be allowed to be dealt with by akina Methus, Olekinas and Cherakeys of this world. There should be no problem. It is not fair to say that ...
