    "content": "Alright hon. Speaker, I withdraw and apologise and refer to him as hon. A.B. Duale. He will not see his name in this list. The reason the House went down on its knees last year is because we have hon. Members who conduct the business of this House as if we are conducting our own affairs. We must have serious people who can read the mood of this House and make sure this House does the correct business at the right time. If we are going to pass a list because we fear going home for six months, we are just cheating ourselves. Let us bite the bullet. Let us have the correct people to lead this House and I can assure you hon. Speaker that even your integrity and dignity in leading this House will be at ease and Kenyans will respect us. With due respect to hon. A.B. Duale and the leadership of the Opposition, I beg them to find a solution to withdraw this Motion. Go to the parties, caucus well, get us people who can lead us and then you bring the list. By that time, we will have relaxed our mind and so we will pass those names and give this House dignity. However, in this scenario we are going to behave and assume that even the other side is comfortable. I am sorry. Members of Parliament, we are not doing service to this country because it has been watching us and has seen what is happening. I beg again, the Leader of Majority Party, hon. A.B. Duale and the leader of Opposition here, let them withdraw this Motion and correct the mischief which hon. Members have. We need to have hon. Members who can be in the House Business Committee so that we retain our dignity. May God bless this House."
