We are looking forward to the presentation of a consensus Draft Constitution to this august House by the PSC in the next few days. This Tenth Parliament has a historic opportunity to rise to the occasion by passing a new Constitution for the Republic of Kenya. We must be successful in this endeavour at this defining moment in our nation’s history. I, therefore, urge hon. Members to uphold the spirit shown by the PSC in Naivasha. It is upon this House to maintain a national consensus on the New Constitution and thus ensure that the people of Kenya stand united during the referendum to be held later this year."}
