"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, this is a fundamental issue. You realize the powers that this Commission has and the reappointment of it without public participation will not let us asses what they have done. Even this morning you saw hon. Kiraitu and hon. William Ruto being taken to court for alleged hate speech. You remember the case of hon. Kapondi, hon. Machage and hon. Kutuny. We cannot let this Commission, especially in an election year, not be vetted publicly so that we know that they are people who are above board and not people who think others have used hate speech and others have not. We need to vet them and we shall vet them. To me, whoever thought of that was being more mischievous than not, because there should be a rule for all the appointments, and not a rule for one particular appointment."
