"content": "Government Act as well as the constitutional requirements of democracy. I would like to remind him that Section 1A of the Constitution â the one that brought multiparty democracy â clearly states that the Republic of Kenya shall be a multiparty democracy. Democracy presupposes free and fair elections. Also, the Local Government Act, because the Deputy Prime Minister insists that the elections were conducted in accordance with the Local Government Act, clearly states that the outgoing mayor shall preside over the elections. But if he is a candidate, then the councilors could choose one from among them to preside. Could the Deputy Prime Minister tell us how the councillors in Nakuru were able to choose one among them to preside over those elections, when the situation was so chaotic that his askaris were captured on television brutalizing the outgoing mayor and clubbing him with batons? Does he consider that as a reasonable force to restrain an unarmed person?"
