"content": "statistics and a real student of inferential statistics. I am a student of statistics and normally when you are doing research, you will have to look at basic variables that would then determine the activities between the variables. If you are looking at somebody putting on a short in a constituency and you say that that person is popular, you are talking about coefficient of determination. If you are looking at development and how popular an individual is in social media that is coefficient correlation. I have looked at variables, the information that Infotrak used and I can say this, without an iota of doubt, they are a bit careless on their part. For example, you cannot compare Gem Constituency which has six wards and is on 400 square kilometers and 46 sub-locations with Ugunja which is my counterpart on 200 square kilometers and has 19 sub-locations and four wards. So you cannot compare Ugunja and Gem because Ugunja is like three wards in my constituency and you cannot rubbish my performance evaluating me with a small minute constituency. As MPs we are given the same amount of money. So if you want to evaluate the performance of MPs you must evaluate based on same kilometers, same resources and same population, then you have a framework to argue that this MP performed better than the other."
