    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do not intend to discuss Hon. Keynan, but the question raised by Hon. Olago Aluoch. As you have captured, the Member is inviting you to help them play their politics. As we know, in the Standing Orders, the Members elect the Chair. The whips of the Coalitions nominate Members into respective committees. Therefore, if they find one of their own no longer their own, it is the business of their leadership, which is in the House now, to do the necessary. They have done it before. As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade, I have suffered. I lost very good Members of my Committee because they were de-whipped by the leadership of the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD). Hon. Speaker, I encourage you not to even rule on that matter because it is clear in the Standing Orders and the procedure is clear. Therefore, they should do the needful through the Standing Orders."
