    "content": "Hon. Speaker, mine will be very brief. In fact, I would like to say that what transpired yesterday was a great embarrassment and nobody won. This is because when you defeat a Motion of extension of time to debate things that are important to this nation, I believe nobody won. I just heard hon. Chachu Ganya asking us to create some time to discuss insecurity in the country and it is all over the place. I think we should use our time in a better way. However, I would like to congratulate the CORD side for what happened. I believe it is because they are organized. We should come together as Jubilee Coalition to know what we are doing. I believe most Members in this House feel that nobody really consults them on some of these issues. So, when you see something like what happened yesterday happening, there is more to all that. Let us work together from now on. Let us take our work seriously. Let us also know that it is not for the Speaker to do our work. As somebody said, we should learn to listen to one another. This is because if we do not then we all lose integrity. We should not burden the Speaker with our own problems. We need to have our leaders talking across parties. What we witnessed yesterday is that the leaders themselves were the ones shouting most. As a lawyer, I believe that some of these things are not over. If you can argue and argue intelligently, why should you shout? What are we showing the country? I believe that we should all work together. Nobody won. For as long as you do not legislate, everybody is a loser. I believe that yesterday nobody won."
