• 19 May 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the problem is not the two weeks. I would have expected the Chair to confirm that it is within the rights of any Kenyan to demonstrate against any levels of inhumanity that is experienced within and out of Kenya. I just want him to say that it is not him, but the Constitution of this country. I expected him to say that in in accordance and by abiding with the Constitution of this country, this country is not going to be dictated on, by foreign nations. view
