    "content": "4. serious incompetence in the performance of their duties. Hon. Speaker, Sir, if you allow me I would like to take a minute or two to tell this House, and the country, that presenting of this particular petition is based on the fact that the Members of this Parliament have a duty and are obliged by virtue of Article 3 of the Constitution to protect, uphold and defend the Constitution of Kenya by virtue of not only being Members of Parliament, but also being citizens of Kenya. In this petition, I have prepared a charge sheet of 18 counts on how the Salaries and Remuneration Commissioners have violated the Constitution. There is a further charge sheet of 12 counts on how the Serem-led Commission has violated other laws of this country. I know time is not on my side and bearing in mind what the Standing Orders provide for, I will be in a position to prove these charges when the relevant Committee that is supposed to look at this matter is constituted by this House. I now pray this particular House that, based on the charges prepared against this Commission, to find that there is need to have the whole Commission removed from office and, probably, have a fresh team appointed that will be able to understand the law and the Constitution and perform its duties based on the foundations of law."
