    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. With Hon. Duale, even if you wanted to be annoyed, he becomes so hilarious that you just laugh it off. I am very sure he did not mean all that he said. I want to second this Motion. The names that we have presented regarding the membership of the HBC are exactly the same names that we proposed or this House passed just before we went on recess. Because the law requires that for every session we need to constitute the HBC afresh, then it became necessary. What we have also quietly agreed on as leaders is that in the absence of the Leader of the Majority Party, his deputy will be sitting in the HBC. The same also applies for my side. In the absence of the Leader of the Minority Party, the deputy will take that slot. In the absence of the whips, their deputies will sit in the HBC. Therefore, we have added other Members. We have got gender balance. Therefore, we are good to go. I am just urging this House to approve these names. As to other matters that Hon. Duale has raised, we will talk but not in terms of behaving in the sense he wants. If it is in the sense of the way he is taking us, that is definitely a no-go zone. I know Hon. Duale knows me very well. Once I believe in something, I totally believe it, and no amount of discomfort will make me change my mind. Therefore, I am not about to change my mind on that aspect. I just wanted to give feedback to my good friend, Hon. Duale; that he is not likely to succeed in that line. Thank you."
