(b) Both men and women are given equitable opportunity to be recruited. Selection for both genders is subject to candidates presenting themselves at the designated centers and offices.

22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Chepkonga wants to use the law to suit himself. He is basing his argument on Section 28(3) of the Kenya Defence Forces Act and he is avoiding Section 49(1) and (2)(c) of the same Act. Is he in order to read Section 28(3) without Section 49(1) and (2)(a) and (c)? He should read to the House Section 49(1) and (2)(a) and (c) as much as he wants to read to the House Section 28(3).

Hon. Speaker, Sir, first, I had the opportunity to be in Parliament when this KDF Act was passed; but I am sure it was one of the laws that we passed at night.

should look at Section 28(2) and (3), and also Sections 49(1), (2)(a) and (c) and (3). This is not the first time. It has never been done in the history of our country, during 50 years of Independence. I am sure the retired Majors, who are in this House, will agree with me that there is no one time when the number of slots per county or per constituency have ever been notified. So, it is not something that is happening this year. As hon. Mbadi has said, it is good that the able Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs ...

So, I think that is not wrong, but I will agree with you that when the substantive Speaker asked about this matter last week when you were away, it was hon. Chepkonga who said that this was an urgent matter, and that it should go to the Committee. I am sure the good judgment of Justice Daniel Musinga elsewhere holds water. If you are short and you cannot join the army, then you can join another profession. You can even join KKV.

22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member for Mvita could maintain his cool, I am not answering the question. We will get a detailed report to the House on whether there are extra-judicial killings or not. I will be very happy if the hon. Member appears before the Committee. He should make sure that anybody with information on this matter from his constituency also appears before the Committee.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, the son of the great man must have patience because it pays. He will have his time.
