    "content": "The Mace of the Assembly has come to be associated with the authority of the Speaker and the House as a whole. While the Speaker is officiating over the House, the Mace must be in its proper place on a Table before him or her. No business may be conducted in the House unless the Mace is present. I wish to remind you of the need to honour these symbols of authority and for the orderly conduct of the House. There is a parting shot to this though, the punishment for disgracing or removing the Mace is even severe; an offender will face the full wrath of the House and would be considered a grave disorderly conduct that may attract expulsion from the Sittings of the House for a period that, under Article 103 of the Constitution of Kenya, may lead to the lose of a seat of a Member. The Members are reminded that certain actions that we take for granted have indeed grave implications and consequences. This august House has an obligation to espouse decorum, behavior and deportment which bespeak of us as hon. persons and we owe this to the society. We do not have a choice! I also wish to remind you that your presiding officers are your leaders, the face of your Assembly who carry your image and dignity. I encourage you to respect them and to honour their decisions. Thank you."
