    "content": "That is the commission, but I was trying to remember the name of the chief commissioner, who was in charge of boundaries. I do not know whether I can remember his name now. I think it is Yusuf. He brought all these documents to me. I have them in the office. They are beautiful documents about how we moved from 111 constituencies and how people were moved from one place to the other. This commission was useful. It went to every corner of Kenya. It was the precursor of the 1992 law. The 1992 law is unique. It is the reason it is important to anchor this law on it. I do not know whether Sen. Wako is here. As Attorney General, he drafted the 1992 law. That is how we ended up with Makueni District in 1992. You literally walk from one corner to north east, where there is a tree, a corner, a bridge and a river. It was a beautiful way of describing boundaries. This is a good framework. For example, how did we end up having an issue with Machakos County? Mr. Masinde, who works in the Department of Physical Planning, did one simple thing. He just moved the boundary of Malili from the Konza Road to Mombasa Road. That simple act moved the whole of Konza City to Machakos; just the simple act of moving that boundary."
