"content": "Mwadeghu becomes a Governor and when he retirees he proposes that his son becomes the running mate of the next Governor that would not be a tidy thing to do. It is not in any way a decent thing to do. Life is about tidiness. With the permission of Hon. Nyikal, I support that we do further consultations and also clean-up the list of names. I want to go on HANSARD for saying what I have said. If the Member for Homa Bay Town--- There is a man who wrestled the Member one day, but he beat him in the party nominations. Congratulations. That man wrestled you to the ground but you beat him badly in the nominations. He should not joke with you. So, I want to go on record as saying that this is an election where the 349 Members are the voters, the two Chambers of Parliament are the polling stations and the two Clerks are the presiding officers. So, if you are not a voter, you cannot influence and you cannot wrestle people here. I support, and we must be given our democratic right to elect the children of Kenya who come from very poor backgrounds so that they get an opportunity to sit in the EALA. We should not extend dynasties. I thank the Chairman of ODM. He convinced Hon. Oburu Odinga to back down. The Wiper Democratic Movement (WDM) leadership must do the same. I thank ODM. You know I have been in ODM. It has very intelligent people. The moment I held a press conference on a Sunday, on Monday Hon. Oburu said: “I have thrown in the towel.” Do not drag Kennedy Musyoka into the mud. He is a nice and refined lawyer. He can serve in any other capacity. This seat belongs to the peasants, the likes of Hon. Mbadi and Hon. Gumbo, who was rigged. Hon. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
