"content": "Hon. Kaluma has been masquerading as Akuku Danger’s descendant, which he is not. I want that correction to be on record. It has been mentioned many times. I know Hon. Kaluma is not related to Akuku Danger because he is not related to me. If he was related to Akuku Danger, he would be related to me. Finally, something that I would request the Chairperson to be alive to is that we have been deteriorating as a House in terms of discipline. Look at, for example, the dressing code. Previously, it was not an issue. Members of Parliament knew how to dress when coming to the Chamber. It has moved a step farther where one time I saw a Member carrying what would be described as a bag and not the lady’s bags that we are used to and which we allow. It was something like a rucksack. Today, we have seen something so unique that I do not think has happened in any Parliament. Let us hold this House with the dignity it deserves. We may want to create drama, but I do not think at this time Members of Parliament want this kind of publicity especially when you read what is on the front page of the Daily Nation . We are still gathering facts about it. It is misplaced and it is presenting Parliament in bad light for no reason. When you do something like what the Member from Kwale County has done, it is a shame. As the Chairman of the Orange Democratic Movement, I will talk to her and try to counsel her to understand that, that drama was not necessary. Thank you."
