It is Hon. Dennis who is coming between me and the Speaker. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you very much for the opportunity to contribute to this Report. The wide experience cited and quoted in the Report from these three candidates for the different positions is something to be proud of. The Committee found the nominees namely Patrick Ngugi Njoroge, Sheila M’mbijiwe and my colleague and learned friend, Mohammed Nyaoga, equal to the tasks of the positions they have been nominated. I happen to know the three of them but I have no personal interest. I specifically thank His Excellency ...

The country, together with those who want to incite, ridicule or cause contempt of the House must agree and allow the House to do its work. We are in support of His Excellency the President, especially for the many things that he is doing. These nominees have been found to not only have academic or professional experience but they are also equal to the task for the offices. They are also suitable by mannerism and attitude but I have a problem. I have been called a village girl by a friend of mine who is also a village boy from ...

I take no offense because truly, I have risen from the village and I am very proud of those humble beginnings. I have a problem with the form that the EACC requires candidates or nominees to fill which is attached to this Report. It is this form that makes enquiries in respect of marital status of people - matters that are not critical to the positions that the nominees are seeking. I would like to encourage, request and plead with the EACC to review the form. I think this form with the stamps of the EACC is the one that ...

should be reviewed because it contravenes Article 27. Once you have been found suitable with a good attitude and good experience, then Article 27(4) says that the State shall not discriminate directly or indirectly against any person on the ground of race, sex, pregnancy, marital status, health status, ethnic, social or religious beliefs. So, this form that is asking what your religion is or what your marital status is, is analogue, outdated and should be reviewed. Otherwise I support this Motion.

On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to ask the hon. Member who has raised this issue to make full disclosure, indicating whether the debate going on was canvassed in terms of seeking an order to stop the House from debating it, and what the ruling of the court was. I believe that the matter was taken to court under notice of urgency. Therefore, the court must have pronounced itself in respect The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to join my colleagues who have spoken in sending my sincere condolences to the families of the deceased, including those who are hospitalised and those who have left hospital as well. These are truly sad times for the country. I agonise and feel the pain of the parents. The victims were young brains with big hopes for themselves and their families. Those hopes were snapped in a day not by human beings but by beasts of twisted minds and thinking. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, terrorists are faceless, heartless and inhuman ...

religion. We cannot continue to say that there is no element of radicalisation through Islamic teachings. That is something we must face. Parents, Muslim preachers and members of the communities must now come out and join Kenyans as we say enough is enough. Even if they are our children, we must say that they do not belong to a civilized community. As a country, we have seen that there is quiet acquiescence---
