    "content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, you know that, as a House, we are now being targeted because we are doing work that might not necessarily make very many quarters happy. I know that many times I sit as a Temporary Deputy Speaker of this House and I give Members a chance to contribute in a very balanced way. The issue came from one of the Members who spoke but all the other Members were in that Press conference. I will feel very uncomfortable if in this House we have one side of the House that feels that its voice is being muzzled. I was wondering whether it is possible to allow the CORD leadership to speak and that is why I am happy the Deputy Whip and the other leaders are here. If it is the case, since you are the Speaker, and some of us sometimes deputise you, it will be good for us to know the position. It is better to deal with it in-house rather than deal with it in the media. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I am requesting if it is possible to allow the CORD leadership a chance to clarify whether or not they have a problem with Hon. Speaker, J.B. Muturi who is curtailing the agenda of CORD in this House. That was the statement that I heard from CORD leadership."
