    "content": "I really appreciate this opportunity that you have given me in order to air my views over the same regulations of the NTSA. I sit in the Committee on Delegated Legislation. We went through that proposal of the regulations. Sincerely speaking, without the involvement of the common mwananchi, who is the consumer of the regulations, it cannot be acceptable that we pass them for the sake of doing it without the consumers knowing exactly what they contain. Therefore, I support the annulment of these regulations. If you look at them in a broader way, you find that the NTSA has crisscrossed the Kenya Police Regulations and the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) Regulations. There must be a clear indication and path of operation with the NTSA. Therefore, we want to urge all those bodies which make regulations to observe and obey the Constitution of Kenya. We must make regulations that respect the motherland’s law which is the Constitution of the country. The common mwananchi suffers a lot. Before the withdrawal of the alcoblow, the same body was chasing the common mwananchi as if he was a thief. This was very wrong. The NTSA must come up with a proper regulation on how to operate in a peaceful way without chasing people as if they are thugs."
