    "content": "I raised an issue on the Floor of the House before, and I will do it again. We need to take the National Assembly seriously. We are the ones who will make people to respect this House. When people compare the Senate and National Assembly, they make this House look like a House of jokers. There are certain things, practices and customs that we are doing away with in this House. We, as a House, are reducing our dignity. We are reducing this House to a house of councillors. We need to be serious even in the Members that we put in certain committees. As Hon. Nyikal has said, without casting aspersions on specific Members, we know each other. You cannot put me in a committee that seeks to remove women from the House. You cannot put some Members in the Committee on Parliamentary Powers and Privileges which is supposed to seek decorum and honour in the House. We know each other. Put us where our strengths are."
