    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion for the nomination and subsequent appointment of my good neighbour, Sen. Pareno to the Speaker’s Panel and dissuade the majority leader from trying to woo her using those methods. He should be a little more magnanimous about the wooing. She is “unwooable”, if such word exists. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will be brief. It is a privilege to serve in the Speaker’s Panel and to serve as the Speaker. You are our judges. We have bestowed on you the responsibility of guiding. From the experience of Sen. Judith Pareno, in Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) in managing the elections for a long period of time, I have no doubt, and therefore, sign the letter with no hesitation that she will do a good job. She is a renowned lawyer, very sound and her judgment, like Caesar’s wife, is beyond reproach. From the minority side, we would like to say that the fact that Sen. Judith Pareno has been nominated to the Speaker’s Panel as opposed to the leadership does not mean that the Speaker’s Panel where you sit is of lesser value than where Sen. Fatumo Dullo is sitting. As far as we are concerned, they are at par. They are numerouno. They are just equals. Therefore, it is not a reward. She is there on merit."
