On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. The hon. Member has used un-parliamentary language by referring to Kenyans as fools. That is un-parliamentary and there is no need for him to continue contributing to the Motion when he has referred to Kenyans as fools.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support this Bill. I have very little to say because a lot has been said by those who contributed before me. I want to ask the Minister to pay attention to Clause 6(1). The clause says that the President and the Judges of the Court of Appeal shall serve for a now-renewable term of three years. This means that a judge gets into office and before he familiarizes himself with the issues, the term is over. This does not encourage people to apply for that job. It is clear ...

The other issue relates to foreign judges. The Minister must make sure that recruitment of judges from outside does not happen again. We are committed to educating our children and we want them to know that we trust them as they strive to serve this country. Judges from outside should not be given jobs here. I want to thank the Minister for the great efforts he has put to make sure that this country has a new Constitution. The road has been very bumpy, but I can say, with confidence, that we have reached somewhere. More Bills should be brought, ...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also stand to support this Motion. I want to start by saying that this Parliament has achieved a lot this time. It has passed very important motions but as we go home, I would want to say that we have not completed some of the very contentious issues. That is what affects wananchi. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to say that with all the Motions that we have passed here, the IDPs are still concerned and worried about their case. They do not know what is going to happen tomorrow. They do ...

Jambo la nidhamu, Bw. Naibu wa Spika. Ningependa kumuuliza Waziri Mkuu afafanue jambo hili. Tukiwa hapa kama viongozi, tuna wajibu wa kuwaambia Wakenya ukweli. Jambo ambalo liko mbele yetu hivi sasa linatoa mtaharuko mkubwa sana, na limefanya Bunge hili lisiendelee na shughuli nyingine. Ningependa Waziri Mkuu afafanue kinaganaga kwamba kwa kweli jambo ambalo lilo mbele yetu lilisababishwa na uchaguzi wa mwaka 2007. Kwenye orodha ya wale watu walioweza kuhojiwa na Bw. Ocampo, hakuna hata mmoja wa vinara waliotaka uongozi wa nchi hii. Yeye, kama kiongozi, na wale viongozi wengine, wangekuwa katika msitari wa mbele na kujitolea kutoa ushahidi. Imekuwaje

Asante Bi. Spika wa Muda. Hata Mimi nasimama kuchangia mjadala huu ambao ni wa maana sana. Mengi yamezungumzwa na wenzangu na mimi nitaongezea yangu machache. Nchi yetu ya Kenya imejaa msukosuko mwingi kwa kuwa watu wanapora mali ya wengine. Zamani katika ukoo wangu, wanaume walikuwa wanalazimika kwenda kuiba ng’ombe kutoka kwa jamii ya Wamasai ili kuonyesha kuwa amehitimu kuwa mwanaume. Madam Spika wa Muda, baada ya elimu kuingia na watu kuerevuka kidogo, imekuwa vigumu kwa watu kurudia mambo hayo ya zamani. Lakini bado wizi unaendelea na hata watu wanaiba mahindi, ndizi, kuku na kila kitu. Wale ambao walichunguza kwa nini ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I walked out to get hold of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, but unfortunately, I could not reach him on phone. However, since this debate will not be concluded today, I am sure we will get the Government response later.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to cite a case that took place at the beginning of this week, if I am not wrong. The PAC Committee brought its report here and Dr. Khalwale realized that first, the number of MPs who were in the House, were not enough to attend to the serious issue. The Bell was rung to alert hon. Members to come back, including the Ministers. When quorum was not realized and adjournment was decided, we revised the matter later. All efforts have not been exhausted. We could still have the Bell rang if there is ...
