"content": "Another issue that affects or interferes with our legislative role is party positions. We have seen a number of times Members of the Senate or the National Assembly making decisions not because they believe in them, but because they have been guided and whipped by their parties. Therefore, it is important for us, as a people who have been elected, to know that we were elected first to represent our people and not our parties. Therefore, if there is a position that I should take as the Senator for Kakamega County, it should favour the people of Kakamega County and not my party position."
