Racheal, a trained teacher surprised many when she defied the Wiper Democratic Party wave in her region to easily win the Kitui South parliamentary seat.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the amendment is meant for clarity. We made it clearer by deleting the words “major” and “partner” because the expressions “major partner,” “major sister” and “partner” seemed vague and ambiguous. We have deleted these and substituted them with ‘spouse(s), child, parent, guardian, brother or sister of the deceased, in the specific order mentioned’ so that it is clear. Thank you.
