"content": " Thank you. I thank Hon. Junet for bringing the Motion. I concur with many things that my colleagues have said, but I do not want to repeat them. Let me say something that no one has said. This House deserves to respect itself. We have had our own colleagues going out there accusing us on all manner of things, but I have not seen anything happening to such members. I call upon the Speaker of this House, and I would have loved to speak when he was here, that it is time to crack the whip. We have had Members of this House going to the same churches and lying. I respect the churches so much. We are all members of different churches and so, we do not disrespect religious leaders. My friend Hon. Koimburi was here but ran away when I told him I actually wanted to name him here. We have the Powers and Privileges Committee, but we have not seen them cracking the whip. Last Sunday, and this is very unfortunate, we had some Senators who went to our village and on the same church platform, claimed that they had been given Ksh20 million to impeach the former Deputy President. Why are we allowing the public to disrespect us? We are the same people who go out there telling lies about this House, but we complain when we are disrespected. Hon. Deputy Speaker, there is an emerging trend where Members who just want to become popular, or just want to be clapped for, use the name of this House to talk about things that have not happened here, but nothing happens to them."
