"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, mine is an issue relating to passports. We have been told that Kenyans who are above the age of 18 years can only register using either their identity cards (ID) or passports. It is very unfortunate that passports are not being accepted by the voter registration clerks. Many Kenyans posses the Kenyan passport but they are not allowed to register. They have been sent back with their passports because the documents have expired. I believe that the issue of expiry of passport is only relevant when one intends to use it to travel abroad. The fact that one is in possession of a Kenyan passport, it means that he is Kenyan. Could the Assistant Minister allow those in possession of expired Kenyan passports to be allowed to register as voters?"
