As an observer, I followed with keen interest the drama that played out on floor of the parliament when a section of ODM MPs openly defied the speaker’s orders and rose to their feet in an attempt to disrupt President Uhuru Kenyatta’s State of the Nation Address.
The President, who had just entered the chamber and took his seat, looked unmoved and smiled all through. For the speaker, he knew all the eyes were on him and therefore he moved with speed to restore order and sanity in the house.
