    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, that particular paragraph of this Report flies in the face of a number of constitutional provisions. That provision violates Article 36 of the Constitution. Even if this House, for whatever reason, were to pass this Report with this paragraph, we can go to court tomorrow and this Report will be struck out for unconstitutionality. Let me conclude by strengthening the argument on the immutability of Article 36 of the Constitution by referring to the immutability of Article 4(2) of the same Constitution. That Article is succinct, clear and unambiguous. It states as follows: “The Republic of Kenya shall be a multi-party democratic state founded on the national values and principles of governance referred to in Article 10”."
