Wavinya Ndeti trying to defend her people and even the monster--- A particular individual brought a machine down and tried to hit a Government Assistant Minister!

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we cannot base the leadership of the commission on ethnicity. This is a new Kenya. We must move on as a country. We cannot base this on ethnicity.
