31 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
I have not yet decided where to vie because I have two constituencies. I will decide on Saturday. If Hon. Fatuma stands against me, she will get preferential monetary support. She will be given money by her party.

That is what it means. Money will be given to political parties, which will then use it to finance the campaigns of candidates of the other gender. If you are here and a lady is going to vie against you in your constituency, you must know that you are in trouble.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you read Clause 28, you will appreciate that, that is exactly what it means. Clause 29 seeks to amend Section 3 of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Act to correct some erroneous reference. Clause 30 seeks to amend Section 4 of the IEBC Act, 2011 to remove the investigative and prosecutorial powers previously granted to the Commission. The powers of investigation and prosecution that the IEBC used to enjoy are rightly being transferred to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as a leader, I have to behave like a pastor and preach to the congregation in the language they understand. Whether you are of male or female gender, you are part of my congregation. I do not discriminate against either gender. What Hon. Wanga said is true but I can tell Hon. Members for free that Clause 28 seeks to amend Section 25 of the Political Parties Act. First, look at Section 25 of the Political Parties Act. It is supposed to provide fiscal incentives. Those who have done economics know the meaning of the word ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the way you pronounce certain words depends on the community you come from. I did not choose to be a Somali. That is my pronunciation.

We were all born in the 47 counties. I was not lucky to be born in the Nyanza region, where proper English is spoken. Therefore, there is “bias” towards one gender, if I may use that word to describe the way political parties will be required to use the resources that will be allocated to them through the law that we are making. You do not need to plan these things. Hon. Koyoo, if you have a competitor of the other gender, you are in trouble as she will get more money. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will skip Clause ...

Clause 40 seeks to amend Section 9 of the Registration of Persons Act, which I said is a matter of the waiting cards. Clause 41 seeks to amend Section 16 of the Registration of Persons Act, which requires Kenya Citizens and Foreign Nationals Management Service to prescribe simple guidelines for vetting of applicants prior to issuance or replacement of an identity card. That must also be done very well.

I know this was a negotiated document. As I have said earlier, it is similar to the National Accord of the 10th Parliament – Hon. Onyonka is laughing. Unfortunately, for the 10th Parliament, history will judge us harshly. We passed some bipartisan Reports which took some of our colleagues to the International Criminal Court (ICC). That is why I do not want to burn my fingers. We passed the Waki and Kriegler Report which are not used today. When we were passing the local tribunal we said, “Do not be vague, go to the Hague”, little did we know that ...
