    "content": "good job. We need to encourage him, as a father to these Members, to continue counselling them wisely. He said he is a father from that county. Finally, on the issue of Punguza Mizigo Initiative, when you make proposals to amend the Constitution, you should not make it personal, so that when it is rejected, you go to public television stations and spew anger as if someone has demolished your house. Some lawyers think that Kenyans do not think. When they come up with flashy tittles like Punguza Mizigo, they think Kenyans will be foolish not to read its contents. Hon. Speaker, allow me to say that the people of Nyeri County have one of the most intelligent speakers in the county assembly. I listened to the gentleman speak and I saw quality. I hope our county speakers will emulate Nyeri County Speaker. I am not saying other speakers are not intelligent, but the Nyeri County Speaker impressed me. He was eloquent in explaining why they rejected the Punguza Mizigo Bill. So, Aukot should hold his horses. He should understand that the same way he is followed by his Thirdway Alliance Party, is the same way other parties have the right to enjoy the support of members of those parties. I chair the ODM Party and I would not want to see a situation where party members rebel against the party like the Member for Malindi is doing. It pains me that I see a member of my party rebelling. I want to thank all the MCAs elected on ODM tickets wherever they are for taking the decision that they have taken in rejecting this Bill that was not well thought out. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I second."
