One thing that the CDF Board is failing to do in this country is to publicize the work done by CDF across our nation. They should have enough money to advertise in the daily newspapers and show the good work that CDF has done. They should make sure that the success story of CDF is seen by everybody in our county so that those people against it can see that there are communities that are wholly dependent on it. The other thing that they need to put across is that CDF is one of the few funds in this county ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Article 108 of the Constitution of Kenya only recognises one Leader of Majority Party. It is the same way it recognises the President and the Deputy President. So, I think the Member is right. You can call the leader of the Senate anything else. You can call him a team leader, prefect of the Senate or anything but you cannot call him Leader of Majority Party. It is not in the Constitution of Kenya. Thank you.

Thank you, hon. Speaker. Let me start by saying this: If I was a senator today representing one of the 47 counties, I would be very uncomfortable. I say this because, if you are to have a forum and immediately, you arrogate yourself the role The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

of a chairman, it says something serious about you. It is a position of serious weakness. It says either you cannot be elected by those members in your county or you do not respect democracy. Why would you want to start a forum and immediately get yourself to be the chairman? In my opinion, the chairmanship should have been left for the Members in that board to elect.

I want to tell this to the Senators of the 47 counties today: Think through this thing overnight and about what you are putting yourselves into. That is because it is wrong as a leader to start a forum and give yourself the role of a chairman immediately, without respecting democracy or caring whether the members want you to be the chairman or not. I support this thing in principle, hoping it stays as a forum. That is because we have a Constitution in this country that must be respected. The Constitution of Kenya provides for two levels of government. ...
