    "content": "We are the peoples‘ representatives. Some of these conventions that we are hurriedly bringing to the House have been with us for more than 30 years. What is the hurry for? If we have waited for 30 years, why can we not wait for another one week? If what is at stake is what we have been told by the Chairman, my friend, my former Minister, hon. Kamanda, then I will say we will be out of order to hurry the passage of each of these conventions. Let him single out the individual convention that will affect that particular election that he has cited. Otherwise, why would eight of them be the cause of the crisis? Where has this deadline been if these conventions were adopted 30 years ago? We have done a lot for Kenyans and in the spirit of the President‘s apology to Kenyans last week and in the spirit of inclusiveness, it will only be unfair for us to allow this to go on. We are interested and we will like to look at the detail and the devil is always in the details. It is good for us to be participative while passing these conventions. While ratifying these conventions, we need to be informed. We need to give information that is correct. Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is my strong opinion that it is important that we allow this to wait until we return from the Easter break."
