"content": "I am a very worried man and I want to go on record that ideally, and if you read the Constitution, the Division of Revenue Bill is an exclusive Bill of the National Assembly. The two Houses are working very well and I have nothing against the Senate. I know they got an advisory opinion from the Supreme Court. I agree with the divergent opinion of one Judge, Lady Justice Njoki Ndung’u, and I will ask the Members of the National Assembly to look for the dissenting judgment of Lady Justice Njoki Ndung’u. If I read Article 95(4), it says that:- “(4) The National Assembly–– ( a ) determines the allocation of national revenue between the levels of government, as provided in Part 4 of Chapter Twelve”. That is a very clear provision of the Constitution. That Article gives the constitutional mandate of the National Assembly. But the Senate and many other people will read a different Article, which I have no problem with, which talks about Parliament. The biggest mistake the crafters of the Constitution made, and I hope this will come in the referendum question---"
