    "content": "That is something that is unacceptable and the Government must respect it. Finally, Hon. Ichung’wah is saying that they were the first to experience a withdrawal of their security as tangatang a. That is a misrepresentation of facts. I will tell you that you cheered when our security was withdrawn, together with the current Hon. Speaker when he was the then Leader of the Minority Party in the Senate and I was the Leader of the Minority Party in the National Assembly. When he was the Leader of the Minority Party in the Senate, and I was the Leader of the Minority Party in the National Assembly, our security was withdrawn. It was not just security alone that was withdrawn, even our Government of Kenya vehicles, which belonged to the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), were taken. One of them was taken at the roundabout next to the Parliament Buildings. Another one was picked from my house. This misuse of power in this country must stop. Let us not entertain the misuse of power. Whether it was previously applied to tangatanga, to the National Super Alliance (NASA), and now to the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance, it is wrong and should stop. They should stop this idea of some police officer sitting somewhere and looking at us attending press conferences, and then the next thing you know, your security has been withdrawn. That is what they did in my case on Monday evening, just because I attended the Azimio Press Conference. When did I leave the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance such that I am now being barred from attending their meetings? It is irresponsible. I have never seen irresponsibility of this nature. We also need to tell the Leader of the Majority Party that, as much as he hates Uhuru Kenyatta, he was the President of this country for 10 years. It is irresponsible for the Leader of the Majority Party, who represents the Government in the National Assembly, to continuously speak derogatively about a former president. We should not accept that as a country. You cannot say that the former President has led goons. No! That is irresponsible. You cannot talk like that. No!"
