Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as far as I know, no individual was elected as the Deputy President known as “Riggy G”. Who might be the Senator for Kakamega be referring to?

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Allow me to join my colleagues who have spoken before me in sending my condolences to our late hero, Mr. Phillip Waruinge. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would want this country to move away from this culture where we come here to mourn and celebrate people when they have left us. We then pontificate about all the nice things that we were supposed to do for them, which we did not do.

It is largely embarrassing for us, as a country, that we only highlight the plight of the people who bring glory to us when they have already left us. What is the point? There was a preacher who said that when one dies, he sees six heavy men or women, who carry the casket. On that final journey, one does not need those six friends. He wishes that he had those six friends when he was alive. People who would carry him whenever he was low, down, struggling, doubting or when things were difficult. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, a delegation ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. My point is that, we in the Minority side, had made certain promises.

Thank you so much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Those of us who are new to the House are learning the hard way. The manner in which matters are listed on the Order Paper makes it impossible for us to prosecute any business that we have put in place in terms of Motions.

Standing Order No.51 states that Statement Hour should take one hour. However, we sit here every time. I can use the two minutes to express my frustrations of having a Motion on the Order Paper every single day. This is my time.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, far be it for me to belittle any business that is brought before this House. I was of the opinion that we are allowed to make suggestions to how we conduct our business in this House. There is nothing wrong with that. Let me prosecute the Motion so that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale can discuss the question of his chiefs, which he thinks is important than some of the things we want to bring here. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion- THAT, AWARE THAT, many urban areas and towns in Kenya lack ...
