    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, questions have been raised under Rule 5. There are Members here, who have said that they were never called to a Parliamentary Group meeting of their party. What I am saying is that we do not want this House and the country to be held hostage by another set of court proceedings without the East African Legislative Assembly having a quorum. That is why I am urging that those Members in respect of which there is no question, let us vote on them and let them proceed to Arusha. Those Members in respect of whom there is a question mark, and I have nothing against any of them - I have nothing against the lady from the Coast Province - All I am saying is that let us not hold hostage those in respect of which there are no question marks with the consequence that the Assembly will not be going on. As you heard, there is no question about it. You will hear of fresh proceedings being filed in courts for non-compliance with Rule 5. So, what I am saying is that let us save Kenya, as a nation, from 1684 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES May 29, 2007 further embarrassment. Let us vote for those in respect of whom there is no question mark. Those are the candidates and nominees of KANU and FORD(P) and one nominee from FORD(K)."
