"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. If you look at the definition of the word “deployment”, you will find that it includes the word “formation.” Having said that, I would like to tell the Minister that what was done was new because deployment means formation. I would like to indicate that the Constitution includes consultation with the Prime Minister. We moved away from the old Constitution because of these Executive powers that were being abused that we are seeing in force now. Having done things unconstitutionally; within his unconstitutional act, could the Minister clarify why the following were not considered who are more senior than the ones that he appointed? They are Benard Kinyua, John Kutswa, Joseph Chepching, Ali Muktar and Zaverino Mabeya Mogaka. Why did the Minister not consider the women who are under-secretaries and are qualified? Is it because he thinks that women’s role in this country is to serve tea and to be flower girls, which we are not and we will not allow?"
