Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sabina Joy Bar is a notorious dirty place in the history of Nairobi from time immemorial. It is not just a bar, but it is a house of sin. For the media to pick up that kind of gutter reporting and proceed to malign the Senator with abundance is something that must be condemned. It is contemptible. This House broadcasts live. Right now, we are not competing with the ‘Lower’ House because we are the only House sitting.

Mwaruma, from Taita Taveta that we were in this House ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is sound ruling. However, I request that following the representations that have come on the Floor, particularly from Sen. Cheruiyot and Sen. Nyamunga, that you invite the twin Cabinet Secretary of Energy and Petroleum, so that they also answer questions on the issue of escalating electricity costs in this country. This is so that we can deal with both the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining and the Ministry Electricity. Sen. Munyes and Sen. Keter are both former Senators.
