    "content": "roles as legislators is representation. As we sit here, I represent the people of Nakuru County. I should be able to use my judgment properly in executing this mandate. So, I do not believe that there should be room for the impeachment to be done by the public, but they should stay as the Bill states here right here, the National Assembly, the Senate or county assemblies. In conclusion, Madam Temporary Speaker, we have also mentioned about the timelines that some Members have found a bit too short or quick for the process. However, I believe that with impeachment, for example, of the President, you do not want it extended for days on end because that would probably make the country unstable and also give way for “monkey business”. I think that was the term that was used a lot by my Chairperson of the Committee on Justice, Legal affairs and Human Rights. I think the timeliness are okay but, obviously, as a Committee, we are open to suggestions from Members on what they think would be more appropriate. We also considered what other jurisdictions are doing in settling for the timelines that we have on the Bill. I believe it has been well thought out but as I said, we are open to suggestions from Members on any amendments as far as those timelines are concerned. I support this Bill."
