    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I say this because we have been called for Special Sittings. This is the third session we are having on this Bill. All that we have been discussing has nothing to do with the people we represent in this House. This is a House of representatives. We represent the people. We do not come here to legislate for individuals so that they may con each other or go back on their words. The issue of coalitions is with us. I want Members to listen to me. There was a coalition called NASA, and another one between URP and TNA. There was also CORD. There was dishonesty in the TNA-URP Coalition although the leaders were people who keep their words. They kept their words. The NASA Coalition had issues because its leaders did not keep their words. We have been called for these Special Sittings with so much urgency that Kenyans wonder: Who is this that is so desperate to have this Bill passed? We saw what happened in the first Special Sitting, when the Speaker gave ruled that we would not proceed with the Afternoon Sitting. Hon. Junet was among those whose tempers flared."
