    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I have listened to Hon. Mbadi and even though he just wanted to bring to your attention the matters that have been raised by the Member for Nyali, he was a bit reluctant to go to the extent of calling on you to name the Member. I urge Hon. Mbadi to refrain from going that direction. What is very apparent is that this Hon. Member came into Parliament on the platform of sensationalism, because of Jicho Pevu . He came to this House and discovered that people conduct serious business here. He is lost and has no clue what to do. When you name him, you will be giving him unnecessary mileage. Let him make the noise he wants to make outside there. Members can express themselves to it, but let us encourage the Hon. Member for Nyali to understand that if he wants to prosecute matters that have to do with his own constituency, this is the place to do it. My concern was the issue of fisheries. In the last Parliament, I was in the Departmental Committee of Agriculture and Livestock; I chaired the subcommittee that came up with a law on fisheries. So, you are not going to do Jicho Pevu and bring the name of the Hon. Speaker in disrepute in order to get mileage and then re-elected on such baseless accusations. I urge that, even as much as we want to name him, we will be giving him unnecessary credit and mileage that he will go and use as a victim. He is not a victim; he is just not doing his work. He should go back and do work for the people of Nyali. He should not use his colleague Members, the Hon. Speaker and the House by bringing them to disrepute in order to raise his own profile. I thank you, Hon.Speaker."
