    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, you will indulge Hon. Millie for obvious reasons. You heard her call the only Pauline Lenguris the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party and said, you will notice as she walks out that she is the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party. Millie also danced on the Floor of the House. However, we never liked her dance as there was nothing majority but a minority in her dance. On a more serious issue of discussing the person of the Chairperson, you cannot do that without bringing a substantive Motion to the Floor of the House. Therefore, I beg you that you do find Hon. Millie Odhiambo to have been completely out of order so that those of us who are new in this House do not take it for granted that one can rise in their place, shout and throw epithets at the Speaker or the chairperson of a committee. Even when a fellow Member is chairing departmental and select committees on behalf of the Hon. Speaker, we need to carry ourselves with the dignity and respect that we demand to be given to us as Hon. Members of Parliament. If you want to be respected as a Member, you must also respect the person chairing the House, either as the Chairperson of the Committee of the whole House or a Speaker. That is why many of us refrain from saying things that we would otherwise want to say to fellow Members, including Millie Odhiambo, who is my very good friend. There are certain things I would have said about her, but I can never say them on record because I respect her as an Hon. Member. However, I expect her to equally respect whoever chairs the Committee of the whole House or the House as a Temporary Speaker. Therefore, I want you to find that she was grossly out of order.
