    "content": "It is a very important prerequisite if Kenya has to achieve Vision 2030 and the various targets that we have set up as a country. It will even give the country a good image. That can only happen when laws are fair. When everything is in order, it will be very easy for those who want to set up businesses here to do so. There is need for all that to be in place so that there is a conducive and an enabling environment for us to prosper. In fact, the Constitution we have now is quite good. It took a lot of time but, the only trouble is that people do not want to play their roles. For example, there is the conflict that we always have between the National Assembly and the Senate. When you look at Articles 93, 94, 95 and 96 of the Constitution, they spell out clearly the roles we are supposed to play. But we get into situations where people want to fight for supremacy. We should have a sessional paper that stipulates how order can be maintained. It should also go a long way to specify roles of the various agencies which are involved in that. If that is not done, you will get conflicts. We are having issues about the role of the Controller of Budget, the Auditor-General and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission."
