Sen. Joe Nyutu Thank you, Mr Speaker, Sir. I rise to comment on the Statement raised by Sen. Agnes Kavindu Muthama about suspension of the sittings of the County Assembly of Machakos. This concerns me because yesterday, we were dealing with the case of Nyamira County Assembly where we have...

Sen. Joe Nyutu So, Mr. Speaker, Sir, do I have your permission to continue with that Statement by Sen. Omtatah?

Sen. Joe Nyutu Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg your indulgence because---

Sen. Joe Nyutu Okay. So, then, Mr Speaker, Sir, I beg to sit down. However, remember I had requested that we needed to talk about this because Kshs19 billion is not pocket change.

Sen. Joe Nyutu Okay, Mr Speaker, Sir, nimesilikiza ground. I thank you. (Laughter)

Cherarkey of wanting to interrupt the line of thinking of those that do not hold his view because we understand...

Sen. Joe Nyutu Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I wish Sen. Cherarkey would stop interrupting my line of thinking. This is simple English and we should not argue here over simple English. Therefore, let me continue with my submission. I do not know why Sen. Cherarkey feels threatened. You...

Sen. Joe Nyutu It is important that we also remember the lessons that we were taught in English. Saying that there could be fears or there were fears, is different.

Sen. Joe Nyutu Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. We all belong to this country and nobody would want this country to burn. However, there is a difference between alleging and expressing that there were fears. I have not said there will be rigging in 2027.
