    "content": "should look at Section 28(2) and (3), and also Sections 49(1), (2)(a) and (c) and (3). This is not the first time. It has never been done in the history of our country, during 50 years of Independence. I am sure the retired Majors, who are in this House, will agree with me that there is no one time when the number of slots per county or per constituency have ever been notified. So, it is not something that is happening this year. As hon. Mbadi has said, it is good that the able Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs looks at the law, and if it is for this House to change it. On the numbers, there is a post that the Parliamentary Service Commission advertised and 15,000 Kenyans applied, yet there were only three positions. So, there is nothing wrong with this. About 55,000 Kenyans can run and five can be picked. Every day, when we were vetting commissioners to constitutional offices, for one position, over 100 people applied."
