    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy, Sir, Clause 46, on recall of Members of Parliament, is very clear. You must go to court in order for you to make sure that you recall a Member of Parliament. We can only delete paragraph 5, which provides that the Member is supposed to go and report progress of the Committees and the Reports of the House. If you cannot fulfil those conditions, you are unfit to be a Member of Parliament. On the issue of elections offences, as provided for from Clause 57 onwards, it is important that we thoroughly educate our people, so that they can understand the import of those provisions. We should do this in the manner in which the Ghai Commission conducted civic education before the first referendum, and in the manner in which the Interim Independent Electoral Commission educated voters. We should have intensified civic education in the same way we educate people on family planning, and in the way former President Moi educated Kenyans on re-aforestation, whose theme was “ Ukikatamti mmoja, panda miwili ”. With those remarks, I beg to support."
