    "content": "Article 127 of the Constitution shows constitution of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC). This is the best example where the Constitution provides otherwise. The Commission consists of four Members from the National Assembly and three Members from the Senate. The word used there is “appointed” by Parliament. Read all those Articles of the Constitution. Fortunately, I am very clear on them. The only time that the word “appointed” is used is with regard to the Members of Parliament who will serve in PSC. In all those other bodies, the words used are “identified, elected, and recommended for approval by National Assembly”. So, Hon. John Mbadi, this is an issue which we need more time than this Motion which is seeking extension of time, so that we can get some people to address it. It is important to look at all those issues which I have raised in all those Articles in the Constitution. We need to put all of them in context, so that we do not pick any one of them in isolation from the rest. As a House, we will then see how best we will deal with situations of this kind."
