It was negotiated outside this House by some elders who sat somewhere. I believe with proper amendments and serious attention to this law, it will be good for this country.

My name was missing when we went into nominations in Kilgoris Constituency and opened the ballot boxes in the morning. That was the case and yet I had paid all the money. I campaigned for the party only to find my name missing. I called one of the Pentagon members who is now in Jubilee claiming to a democrat.

down there. At that moment, I moved to another party thanks to Jirongo because he gave me a party. There was still a threat because people were telling me that someone had already bought a ticket while others had gone elsewhere to buy it. I had to go to the Office of the Returning Officer with four certificates from different parties so that if I found that one had been sold, I would present the other one. I hustled a lot. When I see people trying to put us in that same mess by locking out the opportunity of hopping, ...
