    "content": "I would like to speak to the amendments which relate to the office of the speaker. We have realised that in these second county assemblies, the MCAs in many counties are trying to get rid of their speakers. Sometimes when you look at some of the reasons they put forward, you realise that they are trying to make use of the lacuna in law to try and remove the county speakers on very trivial grounds. So, clearly stipulating the process of impeachment and how it should be done, how the Motion should be brought, the number of Members who are required to support the same, how it should be communicated to the speaker through the clerk and the fact that the speaker is given adequate opportunity as provided for under our Constitution to defend himself against the various allegations, are very important insertions. It makes it very difficult for MCAs to just wake up one morning and decide that since they do not like the speaker, they can impeach him or her."
