Deputy Speaker, for this wonderful opportunity for me to pronounce myself on this very important Motion. Indeed, this is a very rare Motion. It is one of those Motions that do not come about every other day. When this Motion was first introduced, there was a narrative which was created through the media that this is corruption fighting back, and that is why this Motion has been brought. I said to myself that if, for sure, this Motion has been brought as a way of fighting back, then I will oppose it, but if it is the other way round then I will support it. If the Speaker, through his actions, was merely trying to rein in corruption then I have got no issue with him. However, having looked at this Motion in detail and having listened keenly to my friend, hon. Musimba, I am convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the intention of this Motion is not to subvert the fight against corruption. The hon. Musimba is being vilified left, right and centre. Indeed, I must say from the outset that hon. Musimba is a man of rare courage."}
