    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I think Hon. Omboko is uncomfortable with the language, but the language is not un-parliamentary. Going to bed is just going to bed; and marriage is marriage. What am saying is that you cannot start another marriage until you wind up the previous marriage. Hon. Osoro you should advise your new whatever – what do we call them? You should advise it to make sure that the other marriage is first concluded. There was an argument here by Hon. Duale which, if you allow me to challenge, that there is something unconstitutional about what we have done in terms of making agreements. There is nothing unconstitutional. Article 92 of the Constitution allows Parliament to enact legislation to provide for the regulation of political parties. In doing that, we created the Political Parties Act that gave rise, within the Act, to the agreements. Finally, allow me to say this. As you protect the rights of Members of PAA, MDG and others who want to leave Azimio, remember there is also the rights of the people of Ugenya, who elected Hon. Ochieng’, knowing very well he was in Azimio, and he has not consulted them. Whose right is superior? Is it the people or the Member?"
