"content": "Thank you very much, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to oppose this Motion. I am happy that our Member, the Mover, quoted the Bible. The same Bible says you should take out the log that is in your eye before you take a small speck from your friend’s eye. Let me quote my colleague, hon. (Eng.) Gumbo who quoted the words of hon. Martha Karua where she thanked hon. Marende for a job well done. I also stand to thank hon. Muturi, our Speaker, for a job well done. He has done a wonderful job. If it is the duty of the hon. Speaker to control this House, I do not think he has malice towards anybody. If hon. Speaker finds that a Member is doing wrong and he points out that fact, he is not malicious. That is not malice. For instance, if the hon. Speaker says: “You have missed to attend four Committee meetings,” that is not malice. It is his duty to correct the wrongs that are taking place. He has no grudge against anybody. For instance, I come from Nyaribari Masaba. Let me cite one example. One time my colleague, hon. Angwenyi, was here and he called me from this side and I crossed the Floor. Everybody knows when you cross the Floor what happens. It is my friend hon. Nyamweya who came to tell me: “You are wrong. You just go there, bow and come back.” Hon. Speaker was correcting me and that is his duty. I strongly oppose the Motion and congratulate hon. Speaker for a job well done."
