"content": " On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I support this Bill, and that is what I said. However, it is always wrong to make factual misstatements. In fact, if you go and argue today that this is what the law says and you appear before the courts and argue the opposite direction, you will be put to order or you may be cited. There is a problem that we are having persistently when people think that if you have a Bill to amend the Constitution through the popular initiative, it is by the people. It is not by the people, it is by the promoters. A promoter can be one person. All he or she needs is to get one million people. If it is the people then we need all Kenyans to sign. This is a Bill brought by the promoters. It is not by the one million people. The one million people were a condition precedent before you can take it to the IEBC. So, you should think of the process, which is a popular initiative. It is not that it is by the people. It is a popular initiative because you go through certain thresholds. We have to be careful about what we are saying."
