    "content": "So, we should be respected as party members. As my colleague has said, we are not appointed by the parties. We are the ones who make the parties be in the majority or minority side. So, we should be respected and our views also respected. Let me conclude by saying that, in the 11th Parliament, I suffered a similar fate in the hands of my former party. It de-whipped me unconditionally. I was not given time to even ask why, whereas the name of that party was never known in Igembe Central Constituency. It was I who had sold the party there. The little votes the party got there were through me. But the party went ahead and de-whipped me because I did not toe the line on what it wanted. It is unfortunate. Let us not have party leaders who are busy bodies and who try to push members as if they are non- entities in this august House. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
