    "content": "(iii) three elected members who are Governors; or (iv) twenty members of County Assemblies.” Reducing this threshold will give more room for more political parties to get funding. In this case, the threshold has been done in a manner that will not allow briefcase political parties to get funding. I have been working very closely with the Registrar of Political Parties as pertains to this threshold. When we have a higher number up to seven, we will have a choice. For now, there are only three political parties that managed to reach this threshold. We have different post- election memoranda of understanding and the Registrar of Political Parties cannot directly give funds to those political parties based on the MOU. We thought that a law has to be in place to help the Registrar of Political Parties to give funds directly to those respective political parties. This threshold is high. It will not allow many briefcase political parties to benefit. The parties that will achieve this threshold are those that are national in nature."
