Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also wish to comment on the issue of the EALA nominees.

Thank you very much. That is why I say “thank you, Mr. Speaker”. I did not finish the sentence to appreciate your reconsideration and using your prerogative powers to give me a chance to comment after you have said “finally”. This issue of EALA has become very embarrassing. I have just come from Kampala where I met the EALA nominees from other countries and the comment they made was that, “Kenya; why are you denying us an opportunity to work as we wish to?” “Why do you not sort out your issues?” I tried to look for a few words ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I commend and thank the Governor for having brought this Petition. It is a clear indication that some of our governors have the best interest of “Wanjiku” at heart and they are doing what they should be doing. I hope and believe that the committee will look into it so that he gets what he needs. I also hope that proper structures will be put up for accountability for the next Parliaments so that money is utilised properly and the best results are achieved.

Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir; I second the amendment by Sen. M. Kajwang. This is because this amendment puts the records very clear. So far, there is no justification whatsoever for giving the recommendations numbers 3,5 and 7. This is just a deliberate attempt to delay the nomination for the members of the EALA due to ulterior motives. It has nothing about trying to set the record straight or trying to abide by the law. The majority side should not attempt to do work for the minority side, if the minority side has complied with this rule 6.1 who are ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not agree with the recommendations of this Committee. I think they went beyond their mandate. After listening to what was being said, I believe there is no justification for giving all these recommendations. Political parties have been given the powers by the East African Court of Justice Rules, which they have abided by to the letter. A few leaders may feel that since the people they wanted were not nominated and they did not succeed through any other process to get what they wanted, the process must be canceled. That nullification is ...
