"content": "So, one will tell his or her girlfriend to go and compete because if he or she loses, he or she will be nominated because one is the party leader or the Secretary General of the party. Let us not kill the spirit and letter of the Constitution. Let us not patronise politics. Let us not make politics a preserve of the elite. We want a lady who works for ODM in Busia from morning to evening, or a lady who works for UDA or Jubilee Garissa, to be nominated 45 days to the general election. Even as leaders, we can question the party leader. The 12 people you have nominated, are they representatives of the people of Kenya? Are they bringing gender parity? Are they people with disabilities? This Amendment Bill is unconstitutional. It will not see the light of day. Even if we pass it here, it will be challenged in court. I want to ask that we oppose it. Anyway, it needs two-thirds majority. Hon. Florence Mutua, prepare yourself to raise two-thirds majority at the time of putting the Question. This is not a normal Bill. You need to raise 232 Members to support you. With the number of Members I command in UDA, we will oppose it."
