"content": "Sen. Gloria, I am okay. Do not worry about me. We receive guests in this House. When they see us consulting in high tones, walking on the gangways when the debate is going on and speaking on the phone like the Senate Majority Leader is doing now, they think we are not very serious. That was the Communication yesterday. I believe you are properly updated. I was saying that I saw yesterday that the NCIC has now gone a step further and they are proposing a change the names of certain counties, including your county where you sit as Senator for Meru. The arguments are sound. We have counties that are named, or share names with dominant communities within the boundaries, making it uneasy for other members of other communities living in those counties to also feel like they belong to those counties. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was wondering whether we have missed an opportunity to assign an advisory role to the IEBC as contemplated in Article 188 of the Constitution. When and if it is time to delimit or review the boundaries of counties, the IEBC should have a role to play."
