    "content": "papers or not. So, it was not the Kenya Government to issue a passport to a Nigerian. That is the issue they were calling procedure. It is the procedure in law from our Constitution. Article 43 empowers the Minister to do what he did. The second question was whether people were charged and due process of the law followed. I am sure the local aspect of this saga must be in the hands of the Kenyan security agencies. Hon. Speaker, the hon. Member for Butere Constituency asked whether that action is permanent. Yes, that action is permanent, it is definite and he cannot come back to our country, as long as the Uhuru Kenyatta’s Government is in place. If somebody else comes back and strikes a deal with Chinedu, that is for that day. But under the Jubilee Government, Chinedu has left our country. The friends who used to have time with him and eating nyama choma together; the only choice, if you want to meet him, is to go to Nigeria. With regard to Chinedu’s property; I think if Chinedu has legal property, there are other channels including the Nigeria High Commission in Nairobi. There is a lot to be followed. So, if you want to follow his property, we have a clear diplomatic representation in Nairobi from the Nigerian Government. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I am happy to hear today that Akinyi is from hon. Opiyo’s Constituency. She is lucky she is a Kenyan and she is not married to Chinedu because that could have complicated matters for her. But I think Akinyi saw the type of person Chinedu was and said: “Enough is enough.” So, Akinyi is safe as long as she is not involved in the business he was involved in."
