    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, it is important for the Chair of CIC and all Commissions to understand the Constitution gives them important mandate. But the Constitution has given legislative authority to the National Assembly. Period! The Constitution has given executive authority to the Executive. The Constitution has given judicial authority to the Judiciary. They cannot purport to decide what the Judiciary does for the Judiciary; what the Executive does for the Executive or what the Legislature does for the Legislature. Theirs are constitutional mandates that are unlimited. When they say they are doing this or that on behalf of the people, the Members of this House were elected by more than 10 million Kenyans. No other institution in this land has the direct mandate of the people than this National Assembly has; not CIC, not the President, not the Speaker and, certainly, not any of the other individuals we are quoting here."
