    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairman, we should not use this Floor to disparage other people. Hon. Sunkuli avers that people are employed in the Office of the Attorney-General on the basis of who they know and are not necessarily qualified. Maybe just for information to Hon. Sunkuli, most of our best drafters in this House have been poached from the Office of the Attorney-General. Some of the best advocates also in ministries and parastatals have been poached from the Office of the Attorney-General. Therefore, it is not fair to disparage those very diligent officers working in the office of the Attorney-General, that they are not qualified or that they found their way there on account of who they know. Many of them are young Kenyans, who know nobody. They just applied for jobs and got. I believe even some of these technical officers sitting on the bench here came from the Office of the Attorney-General. So, we should be cautious not to disparage people on the basis of where they worked before or where they are working today."
