    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I cannot concur more with you in that Solomonic ruling relating to that matter, but as you have said, we must be a House of procedure and we must follow our own Standing Orders. Indeed, Hon. Speaker, you remember that during the 11th Parliament, I did move a Motion to name the then Member for Nyando, who is now the Senator for Kisumu, Sen. Fred Outa. We did debate that Motion and we, as a House, named the Member for gross misconduct. However, my point of order is in relation to what you were saying. I am trying to ignore the Leader of the Minority, or is it the leader of the real minority? Let me not get into that. The Deputy Minority Leader, in his contribution to the earlier discussion, referred to the Member for Nyali as a conman. According to Standing Order No.107 (a), that is indeed un-parliamentary. Therefore, I beg the Member for Kathiani to withdraw. We cannot be disparaging a Member who is not even seated in this House, unlike Hon. Junet Nuh, who the other day referred to himself as a cow. It is not another Member who referred to him as a cow and it is within the rights of Hon. Junet Nuh to refer and describe himself as a cow. However, you cannot attempt to call another Member a conman or purport that other Members should be called a cow. Some of us will never be cows or sheep. We are here to represent our people and we will do so without being cows, sheep or even pigs, even though I rear pigs. Hon. Speaker, I want to beg that the Member for Kathiani withdraws the reference he made to the Member for Nyali as a conman."
