    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. First of all, I am a Member of the Committee on Selection. We met and all the changes that were made were well conversed. Some people pretend to know English more than us. I must also confirm that I am the prefect of all the first-timers. We are the majority at 70 per cent. In any case, Hon, Ichung’wah should talk to us because we are the majority in this House. Being their prefect, I do not want anyone to demean any of us because we are here legally. In fact, some of us have been more active than those who have stayed here for long. I do not know whether it is because they have grown weary. Hon.

During a meeting of the Committee on Selection when the proposals of these movements to committees were made, I supported them despite the fact that I belong to the hustler movement, and I saw it as de-whipping of Hon. Wamuchomba. We said that it is their time and we will have ours. Our time is coming. We will enjoy the committees that we will be moved to. We will also enjoy the de-whipping. We have no problem with it because there are people who have the luxury of that time. We will also have our own time and we will de-whip them. Hon.
