    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. This is where I wanted to make your life easier. I wanted to indicate that the proposed amendments by Hon Nyikal affect some of my amendments. It affects my proposed amendment to Clause 6(a)(ii) on the private sector. Therefore, I drop that amendment. I wanted to retain that the private sector has a say. Secondly, I drop my amendment to Clause 6 (a)(iii), which also retained the voice of the civil society. It also falls because Hon. Nyikal’s amendment has been carried. Hon. Temporary Chairman, you may have noticed that I tried to speak on the amendment by the Chair of the Departmental Committee because I had a similar amendment. Apart from the constitutional issue, I had a different issue on indigenous knowledge. For example, in my constituency, older men can tell the weather patterns. They can tell you it will rain when there is no sign of rain, yet they are not witches. It is just because they have years of experience. So, because that has been carried, my proposed amendment is also carried. Under Clause 6 on the nomination by the Commission on University Education, I am dropping my amendment because Hon. Nyikal’s amendment has failed. Finally, the amendment to Clause 6(b) has not been… However, it is not very important. Therefore, I drop it. Some of the amendments I was keen on have been carried, and others have not. I am okay with that. So, I drop the ones that are remaining. Thank you."
