Ruaraka, ODM): This is it. Hon. Speaker, you are seasoned. That is why wisdom without measure has been dispensed from your mouth.

That delegated legislation must be brought to the House. Even if ...

’ (Ruaraka, ODM): Article 38 (3) says that every other citizen has the right without unreasonable restriction to be registered, vote by secret ballot and to be a candidate for a public office.

situation of ethics and corruption in this country. When this matter is brought to leaders as assembled, it requires a proper conscientious debate, and a full expression of the House so that we know that we have an instrument by which we can fight corruption in this country. As for the Members who would want us to go to the next Order, they can kindly, bear with us so that we are able to examine this matter properly, and put it to rest.

in investigating crime and making decisions on who or how these things can be taken to the Director of Public Prosecutions for prosecution. There is a blame game between the DPP’s office and the Commission. I think that is very unhealthy. We, as the people who are consuming this information, do not care what happens. We just want investigations and prosecutions to be done. They must find a meeting point between the Commission and the DPP on how they are going to investigate and prosecute. We have reinvigorated this office, and there will be no excuse at all from the ...
