    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you carefully read Standing Order No.23, which I have read up to the end, we are engaged in what Shakespeare would call, “too much ado about nothing.” Once you receive communication of changes from the Minority, the Standing Orders do not require you to do anything. All you are required to do, is to receive. I have read Standing Order No.23. I have heard the Chairperson of Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee say there is an element of communication. It is not there. There is no communication. Probably, communication could be for peculiar reasons. We acknowledge that the current Whip has her staff, current benefits and an office. Therefore, there has to be order in the manner which transition happens. I believe the Minority side must respect and observe that order because the people working for the current Whip can easily work for the next Whip. The office and benefits the current Whip is enjoying must be dealt with in a manner that does not leave her feeling like she is being crucified by this House. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have a defacto and dejure Whip on this side. You can be legal, but illegitimate. That is why the Senate Majority Leader got it wrong, on our weekend rallies. We are saying yes, Hon. William Ruto is the legitimate President, but he is illegitimate in our eyes. The matter of legitimacy was dealt with at the Supreme Court. The matter of illegitimacy is upon us. You can have a legal, but illegitimate child."
