"content": "Now, let me speak in English because I know I can easily communicate to you better that way, Hon. Njagagua. I know your history and mine are intertwined somewhere. You are highly encouraged to speak the national language of Kiswahili, but it cannot be a must because our Standing Orders have not been changed to specifically state that. So, this being a House of orders and rules, you are highly encouraged to speak in Kiswahili. The Speaker will be very inclined to give Members who are willing to speak in Kiswahili an opportunity. A good example is the Member for Kesses, Hon. Mishra. We will be happy to give such Members an opportunity because we also have to start adopting the systems that we create for ourselves. We cannot be having Standing Orders in Kiswahili and yet… So, that is what we are going to do. As I have said, it is not a must. We, however, encourage Members to speak in Kiswahili. We will give opportunity to them to do so. What is it, Hon. Mishra?"
