    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, the ombudsman is a good institution, although he should have been appointed by the Chief Justice and prepared to go with it in view of the amendments that have been made on it, under the current Constitution. Had the original formulation remained, I would have been here to totally oppose it. They have now softened it kidogo . Let us hope it will work and that he will now go through JSC, who will make a determination about it. We have the extra constituencies. According to the report that was received, there are a number of counties that ought to have received additional members also. That is if the same criteria was to be applied throughout. I know that Kitui is one such county. It got zero whereas according to the population, it should have received at least one. There is also Migori - there are three of them in the Report. A way has to be found how that can be rectified, but it will not be by amending this. I am quite sure that if this goes through, they can be given priority. I am glad that one of the protected constituencies in my county--- If that formula had been applied, that constituency would have gone. I am happy that Budalangi and Samia constituencies have been protected under this Report. Madam Deputy Speaker, my five minutes are almost finished. I think we have Vihiga County---"
