    "content": "These are issues I want to raise because I felt that the Chief Justice either ignored or decided to close his eyes on them. Maybe this is because he knows he is going home and wanted to release a bombshell and then go home. So that, the person who comes after him can handle the aftermath of that bombshell. He is leaving with a bang. When Kenyans passed the Constitution in 2010, they gave us five years to legislate on the issue of the two-thirds gender rule. The question that has been going through my mind for the last 24 hours is: Which Parliament was to do that legislation? Was it the 10th, 11th or 12th Parliament? This is because under Schedule V, it was supposed to be in five years with one extension of one year only. I am serving in the 12th Parliament. The Parliament that the Chief Justice should have dissolved is the 10th or 11th Parliament and not this one. He is mistaken. The Parliaments that should have been dissolved are parliaments that have passed and not this one. It is in the Constitution. It is the 11th Parliament that he should have dissolved. Immediately after they approved it in the 11th Parliament, the first business they should have conducted was to dissolve that Parliament and not this one. The Constitution has moved on."
