"content": "Let us become an honourable House. In as much as we disagree, we should not use some words in this House whether it is coming from Members of the Majority Party or the Minority Party. We need to respect ourselves. There are some words which when used here, it is a clear indication of lack of self-respect. I would not want to participate or sit in a House where people do not respect themselves. Hon. Speaker, it is high time you became a bit harsh. In the absence of that, we lose it as a House. Whether it came from the Majority Party or the Minority Party, it is equally bad. Leaders of Majority Party and Minority Party, please, lead us in being examples to all of us by first behaving with decorum then the rest of us will follow. I, sometimes, have a problem with my friend, Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah. He is a young man – far much younger than me. I have been mentoring him, but sometimes he veers off the rail. He is now my leader in the House but he knows that I am his senior. I came here before him. I went to school before him and became an accountant before him."
