"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, thank you for your protection. Recommendation No.2 states thus: “Fresh selection panel be constituted as per the Teachers Service Commission Act.” It is talking about a fresh selection panel. If we pass this, it means that a fresh selection panel shall be constituted and yet that is contrary to Section 8. I want hon. Members to be humble by reflecting and looking at that section. As we move forward, I hope this House shall not be embarrassed by recommending what this House is not able to recommend within the law. If the National Assembly rejects all the names or some of them, it is the mandate of the President to bring a new list. They have usurped the authority and the mandate of the Act by ordering a fresh panel. Therefore, this recommendation cannot be allowed because if we allow it, then it will be against the law. As I sit down, may I say that the elephant in the House, in this list, is the Chairperson. We are punishing some innocent Kenyans. The other elephant outside the House is one Lydia Nzomo."
