"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will now focus on the strengths of our Speaker, bearing in mind the fact that I may not be able to say everything that I had wanted to say. We have Speaker who is respected, and who has vast knowledge and understanding of parliamentary business. We have seen it through the way he guides us in this House while debating issues, without even referring to the Standing Orders. I would like us to give him credit for that achievement, being a qualified lawyer and having served as a magistrate in various places. He has been very strong in handling the new political outfit that we have today, with so many Members of Parliament who need to be controlled. I would also like to say that he has steered the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) in a way that satisfies us. Look at what the National Assembly has achieved. I would like us to compare ourselves with the Senate. Consider the number of Bills that we have passed. Really, we need to give credit to our Speaker because he has really done very well. We have a House to compare ours with. We know the number of Bills that have been passed by the National Assembly and the Senate."
