"content": "The calendar begins in January and ends in December. It will be very perfect for us to have an election in December and then start our term in January and finish five years later in December and the next cycle starts in January and ends in December. It would look very natural and nice. However, when we finish a term in the middle of the year, there are several things that will not work out. One, of course, it has been said over and over by Members, is the school calendar. There are arguments that the school calendar will not be highly affected when we put the dates in December. The truth is that the Kenya National Examinations Council, KNUT, KUPPET and all the stakeholders in education have said that the date should be changed to December as opposed to August and I am compelled to agree with them. On the school cycle, the professionals have spoken and they also believe the date in December is better."
