    "content": "Recently, three days ago, there was an opinion poll on the Members who are active and those who are not, which I do not believe was done scientifically. But a Member of this House went out of his way to disparage this House in a very awkward manner by saying that he does not waste his time in the House because he has other serious businesses to do. I felt, as a Member of the House, that I have a duty and obligation to defend the House when it is under attack and, more so, from a Member of the House. Despite his limitations, Hon. Sudi said that he has other businesses to do and to quote him he said: “ Kingereza mingi amewachia watu kutoka Nyanza naupande huo mwingine ambao wanajua kuongea ndani ya Bunge Kingereza mingi”. That is a very offensive attitude towards the House. I know that Nyanza people speak very good English - the Queen’s English for that matter. That is the only thing they inherited from the Europeans who left. They never got land, but they were left with English and up to now, they are the custodians of that language. It is very unfortunate that a Member can speak in that manner and impute improper motive on the House. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
