"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to appeal to the Chair that hon. Members who are in this House are not only leaders of this Republic, but they are also friends of democracy and friends of Kenyans, who gave us this Constitution. I am, therefore, asking the Chair to guide this House and the Republic on whether the expectation by the public that the list of Ministers who will be sworn tomorrow under the new Constitution should not be made public before the day of swearing, as is the tradition in the governance of this country. Secondly, how will the Chair afford Parliament an opportunity, on behalf of all Kenyans, to be satisfied that the letter and spirit of Chapter 6 of the New Constitution on Leadership and Integrity is upheld? It will be total betrayal to the 6 million Kenyans who voted for the new Constitution. They wanted to have a new order in this country. They wanted to see, in the new Cabinet â and with all due respect - officers who have been adversely mentioned in matters of corruption ranging from the Goldenberg saga, Anglo Leasing, the maize scandal, the Grand Regency Hotel scandal, the Free Primary Education Scandal and the Ndungâu Commission Report on abuse of public land."
