Bichage","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":2616,"legal_name":"Chris Munga Nyamaratandi Bichage","slug":"chris-munga-nyamaratandi-bichage"},"content":"Hon. Speaker, the Leader of Minority Party had told me personally that I could start attending meetings of the Committee on regional integration. So, this morning, I attended a meeting of the Committee, under the chairmanship of hon. Kajuju. However, my name is not on this list, which means that I attended the Committee meeting illegally. I propose that CORD withdraws its Members from this list, so that we can do internal housekeeping before the names are brought back. Otherwise, we cannot have a few people controlling Members of Parliament, who have been elected from constituencies to represent Kenyans in this House. We are discussing matters transparently. So, I request that this list be withdrawn for parties to consult and forward new names."}
