    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This Petition by Jonah Gachuki on various elective offices is misplaced because, if he seeks to do a constitutional amendment on Article 102, 148 and 180, he needs to collect one million signatures, just like those who were promoting BBI did. These are careers and they are determined by the people. After every five years, the constituents will decide. Even in your case, Hon. Speaker, we are the ones who elect you because we are satisfied with your performance. In elective positions, I think, you seek the mandate from the people as we are heading into the next general elections. I think this is a waste of resources and committees’ time. I think the committee should be spared from these kinds of petitions. They have more work to look into issues that are more productive to this country. With those few remarks, I reject."
