"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank Sen. Omogeni and Sen. Cherargei for coming up with this very important Petition. This is a serious matter. The legal profession, as we speak, requires an overhaul. It must be re-thought to respond to the challenges of the 21st century. Whereas this investigation will be done to establish the mass failure at the Kenya School of Law, I think we should do more. I do not agree with the suggestion that there will be only one institution of learning that will train lawyers for pre-bar examination. I also do not agree that that institution should be centralised somewhere in Karen. It is punitive. I had made this suggestion when I was still teaching at the university; that we must change our pre-bar exam to be like the New York or London Bar exams where you just prepare the exam similar to the one for the Certified Public Accountants of Kenya and the person who sets the exam and the one who examines students should be different. The preparation for pre- bar examinations should also be different."
