• 12 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: (b) by deleting subsection (2). This is on the register of voters. There are two things here; inspection of the register and verification. Inspection is a continuous activity that should go on every time. However, just a few days to an election, voters should have an opportunity to verify that their details are properly captured in the voters register. We needed to break these two components so that one refers to inspection and the other to verification. This now shows that voter registration is continuous but rectification is limited to the period before a by-election or an election. view
• 12 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the Member for Suba North is absolutely right. The concept of political parties is something we are strengthening.

When people hear that I am issuing bursaries in my constituency today, they change their voting stations to my constituency so that they can benefit. The next day, when Hon. Oluoch, who is my neighbour is issuing bursaries, they all migrate there. There is a problem with this mass movement. Hon. Oluoch and I, who sit in the same Committee, agreed that this is an issue that must be dealt with. However, first, we are ... view

• 12 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Member for Suba North, what we are saying is that the Government and those of us who are going to form the next Government should upgrade Article 43. We need to give people decent houses. If we do not address that issue, it becomes an abuse to ordinary citizens. view
• 12 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 13 of the Bill be amended by deleting paragraph (b) (ii). This is the reverse of Clause 3. The Mariga case we were talking about was trying to fix that kind of situation.

Therefore, we are deleting it because it is a violation of Article 38 (3) of the Constitution. Having carried the one in Clause 3, it fits very well and there ... view
