    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am really concerned because this House and Parliament must not allow discrimination. I remember some time back before the Handshake, I actually came to Parliament Precincts - I did not even come to this House - in Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) colours and the security refused saying I could not come in. Now, the same security and Serjeant-at-Arms have allowed this Tanga Tanga Member of Parliament to come in UDA colours. I take offence with this beyond even the ruling from the Floor. Our Serjeant-at-Arms must offer an explanation why when it was ODM then, I was categorically told… In fact, we were with Simba Arati. We were told that we could not come to the precincts of Parliament, not even the gate of Parliament, in ODM colours. Now these are UDA colours which are even uglier than the ODM colour, which is smart orange, very beautiful to see and you allow this ugly yellow colour. We need an explanation on this. So, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I ask you to first ask the Member to leave the House and Chamber and then follow through and ask why the Serjeant-at-Arms have allowed him here."
