"content": "and my friend, Hon. Mbadi, that even if he is talking about NASA, it is true that ODM has taken charge of this. I have great respect for one Raila Amollo Odinga. His history, persistence and continuity are unmatched in the political limelight of this country. If we are talking about cohesion, NASA is about four political parties. We have no problem with Raila going to meet His Excellency President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta, but what are we saying? If we are talking about cohesion, then Raila, ordinarily should have called his other principles because this is NASA. In this House, we are in NASA Coalition. My friend Hon. Mbadi is the Leader of the Minority Party because of the votes that I gave Hon. Raila Amollo Odinga. Hon. Speaker, when I look at Hon. Junet, the Whip and Hon. Mbadi, I compare their constituencies with mine. In Mavoko Constituency, Raila Amollo Odinga garnered 78,000 votes. In Suba, Raila got only 100, 000 votes. The reason why ODM has more Members is because Raila was the flag bearer of NASA and we gave all the votes to NASA. The ODM constitutionally was supposed to be in front. If it was Kalonzo Musyoka, Musalia Mudavadi or Wetangula, maybe FORD-Kenya would have had more Members of Parliament here. So, it is pretense for anybody to tell us that ODM is the main party in NASA. I want to tell Raila Amollo Odinga that I love and respect him, but if he is honest, he is making me think that even in oathing, he duped his other members the way he duped them when going to Harambee House. I want to tell Hon. Junet that next time, because I have seen Kalonzo also wants to go to Harambee House, I will be there on the stairs. I will be on the negotiating table for his information, not like him who is just clapping his hands without knowing what is in the document and what we are expecting. In Mavoko, I buried more than four people who were fighting for the course of NASA. If we were all included in this discussion, we would ask the two principals to make reparations for the people who died in this course. We lost business. Safaricom lost because of this movement. I am a shareholder there. Brookside lost. I drink their milk. We must address these issues for this country to heal. I want to tell Hon. Duale that I thank him for being a professor of politics. I have seen him raise and heap praises for Hon. Raila Amollo Odinga, my leader. When I look at the HANSARD, two or three weeks ago, my friend is better than Moi, the professor of politics. Again, I want to warn Jubilee to remember that if you marry a divorced woman, she can also divorce you. If you are betraying your fellow colleagues, you could also be betrayed. Remember there was the Forum for Restoration of Democracy (FORD), the Kenya African National Union (KANU), the National Rainbow Coalition (NARC) and now NASA. Be careful. Sorry for everything. Yesterday’s drama has brought out this emotion. Thank you for giving me this chance."
