    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to thank hon. Members for giving support to this particular Bill. Indeed, I also want to support what Mr. Orengo is saying. In addition to the incongruence in Clause 28, it would not also have been implementable because there are no registered voters in Kenya. As of now, you cannot be a valid member of a political party if you have not been registered as a voter. The Constitution is clear on that. Those who did not vote in the referendum in 2010 are not in the electoral commission’s list of voters. Therefore, they cannot even be registered as members of any political party, even by the software that the Registrar of Political Parties has now. This means we had disenfranchised a very large section of Kenyans, for example those who have just acquired identity cards and those who are in the diplomatic service. I want to thank hon. Members for giving their support."
