Hansard Summary
The sitting was dominated by the swearing‑in of a large number of members, with the Clerk repeatedly insisting that the oath be taken in the constitutionally prescribed form, causing interruptions and re‑takings. The Clerk also instructed members to remain in the chamber to witness colleagues’ oaths and offered congratulations. The proceedings were largely procedural with a tone of tension over compliance. The afternoon sitting opened with a roll‑call of newly sworn‑in Members of Parliament, listing their names in succession. The speaker then offered a brief congratulatory remark, acknowledging that they have taken the oath. The exchange was procedural and carried a generally positive tone.Sentimental Analysis

The Clerk of the National Assembly (Mr. Sialai): Order, Mheshimiwa! You have to do it in the prescribed form. Utarudia tena tafadhali.
Shimbwa Omar Mwinyi I am asking Members to take oath in the prescribed form because if you do not do that, it will not be an oath that has been taken as per the Constitution.

(Mr. Babu Owino Paul Ongili while taking the oath mentioned the name of Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga) The Clerk of the National Assembly (Mr. Sialai): Order! He has forgotten. Mheshimiwa, the Constitutions demands that the oath be taken in the form it is prescribed. I am, therefore, asking you to start again and this time round, do it in a proper manner.
Members, I wish to indicate to you that it is only fair that we take the oath in the manner prescribed. You will have all the time in the sun when the House reconvenes to say what you want to say within the meaning of the Standing Orders. In the meantime, let us do it in the proper manner as is required by the Constitution.
We will continue calling out the names. Thank you.
