Hon. Temporary Speaker, he was irrelevant because Hon. Raila Odinga has nothing to do with this Cotton Bill. If he wants to praise him, he can go to the media centre to do that. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I also wish to speak on this Bill.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support the Petition by Hon. Kirima regarding Mr Gerald. The amount of money involved is so petty that somebody can make a mistake in the daily accounts received in a bank. M/s Absa Bank should have been more considerate to Mr Gerald. It should unequivocally...

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. What is your point of order, Hon. Dawood? Hon. Deputy Speaker, Hon. Kibagendi has misrepresented the President’s Speech.
