    "content": "Hon. Speaker, while the provision in the Standing Order is very clear, CORD needs to confirm whether or not they are still within a coalition. This is because we have seen FORD (K) members being persecuted heavily. When Senator Mong’are, a FORD (K) member, won a Committee Chair position in the Senate, he was de-whipped by the Orange Democratic Party (ODM). Hon. Mwashetani, a member of FORD (K), has been de-whipped by ODM. Even when the FORD (K) party leader wants to launch his presidential campaign, he is stopped by the Deputy Party Leader of ODM. Can they confirm if, indeed, they are still together as a coalition or they are no longer together? We saw the Deputy Party Leader of ODM, Hon. Wycliffe Oparanya, blocking the FORD(K) Party Leader from launching his presidential bid. Hon. Speaker, for the sake of parliamentary proceedings, we need to understand if they are still operating as a coalition or as separate parties that are just sitting on the same side. It is no longer clear."
