    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, I stood in my place here and I raised the issue of a misleading statement. While saying nobody from his ethnic community is being appointed in those commissions, that should be looked at cumulatively. But even in terms of the National Gender and Equality Commission, this is not the full list of the commissioners of that Commission. Those are just two who are being appointed. The commission has nine members. The former Chairperson was from Bungoma and there are members from the Luhya ethnic group in the current Commission. If the Member did not know that, let him apologise. But I was also emphasising, so that we do not mislead the public that some regions are being excluded. Just this morning, we passed the nomination of Mwenesi. So, he cannot run from that fact by claiming that he was talking about his constituency. Even in my constituency, we have never had anybody called a commissioner, leave alone a commissioner of the National Gender and Equality Commission. So, he has to withdraw or speak in alignment with the Constitution."
