Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to comment on the Petition from the Member for Bomet. Before I say that, I would like to say that I am very perturbed by my former party, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), for expelling me from the Committees. I am telling ODM that they are lucky they got an MP from Meru on ODM. I got the votes not because of the party but because of my own integrity and my popularity among the people of Igembe Central. I challenge you to meet me there again. I will beat you flat. I am telling you as a party. If this is the way you are going to do it, the party will shrink and collapse."}
