"content": " As I support this Vote, I read somewhere, and I think it was my very good friend and lawyer who represented me very well in my petition, the famous Ahmednasir Abdullahi, who tweeted last week and said that the Judiciary has a certain number of staff and Parliament has 1,000 members of staff. He asked why Parliament is getting a certain amount of money. I really want to set the record straight. The staff of Parliament, including those who are working in our constituencies, are many. About 2,000 are working within the precincts of Parliament in Nairobi. Outside, in our constituencies, there are about 9,000. When you talk about Parliament staff working either for the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) and Members, they are close to 11,000. I want to make that correction that compared to the Judiciary, Parliament has 10 times its number of staff. That explains the bigger budget for Parliament."
