On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand on Standing Order No.90(5) regarding the contribution by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale a few minutes ago. He called some of the communications of these two Houses, the National Assembly and the Senate, as childish. Is he in order because he is in breach of Standing Order No.90(5)?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Petition by the people of Kajiado is a confirmation of a cry by the whole country on the total failure of the Jubilee Government to offer services to the people of Kenya. According to the Constitution, a number of roads are supposed to have been relinquished to the county government system. However, the national Government has persistently refused to do so.
