    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I have been in the 11th and 12th Parliament. I have been in this House when Duale I, Duale II, Duale III and Duale IV were shot down. I want to challenge the Member for Kiminini that he either withdraws his assertions that I was in New York - yes, I have been in New York - but I have never been in New York at a time when this House is voting on a critical matter as the two-third gender rule. I have been here every time. So, Hon. Speaker, for the sake of my good name, I urge that Hon. (Dr.) Chris Wamalwa either substantiates what he saying or withdraws that statement. This matter is for all of us to resolve it together. We will not get to the bottom of it by attacking, badmouthing and trying to put each other down. We will only resolve it with the unity of purpose that the Hon. Adan Duale mentioned. I urge you to ask Members that even as we debate to try not to drag each other down because it is not by pulling each other down that we will find a solution to this very important matter. We have our views on it which might be different from Hon. (Dr.) Wamalwa’s but, as you have said, you may not agree with what I say, but you will defend unto your death as I know you, my right to say it as an elected Member of this House. Even if we do not agree, let us not bring each other down because Hon. (Dr.) Wamalwa, you and I need to be somewhere after…. Sasaunaleta nini?"
