This initiative is of critical importance as Members will play a central role in spearheading the process within their respective constituencies and counties. The forum will also present an opportunity for Members to discuss other matters relating to the welfare of Members and the facilitation of representation and oversight roles of Members and the House. Therefore, I implore all of you to attend this important briefing. It will ensure a unified understanding and effective coordination as we engage with the public on this exercise. In addition, I have instructed all Members of the Parliamentary Service Commission to attend the Kamukunji. If there are concerns, as many of you have been raising, I urge you to read the Constitution for the proper procedure to remove holders of constitutional office."
