"content": "I want to take you back to 1988 when we used to have mlolongo --- The basis for the elimination of mlolongo was that Kenyans felt that they were not being allowed to exercise their conscience. We all today, for pertinent reasons, want to switch the clock backwards! I do not think we should do that! We cannot do that! We will do the one thing. In fact, if we do this one, it will mean that, whenever we have a General Election, even for we hon. Members, whoever wants to vote for us will have then to come and show others the way they have voted. That will undermine democracy. Parliament must defend democracy and freedom of individuals."
