wacheni wivu. me, I now want to be an MP. can somebody 'invest' 25M towards this cause? we shall have 5 years of monthly dividends, not to mention the Govt procurement deals we shall organise Via the house committee I will be on. the 'investor' can be chairman of the CDF. hio itakuwa 'petty-cash account' to cater for the mistresses expenses. one young city MP claims to have spent that much...

Bishop Wanjiru is about to loose her sit. Is the verdict out??.

Nothing short of a by-election should be the outcome.

@Wa_ithaka... not to worry, I won't be as financially irresponsible as mbugua. neither do I have 'obtaining by false pretence' court cases hanging over my head. incase you didn't know, the current best 'business' to be playing is politics..control of procurement is just too lucrative...hence why young flashy city businessmen like mike wa buru are 'investing' in acquiring a seat

Shame, shame and more shame on these greedy mpigs! Absolutely insatiable while the majority of Kenyans are starving! Politics has become the most lucrative profession.

So for them to pay taxes they have to pass a billd that increases theur salaries?? Do we really have leaders in that August house that care for the welfare of Kenyans..eg Teachers who apparently are not going to be paid their dues?
They are soo useless...its unbelievable!!

Another reason why i will vote NO. ......the draft is doubling MPS and if it passes we will be spending over 8Bn is MP salaries alone.

On the contrary there is a new institution ..in the draft .....the Salaries and Remuneration Commission, which would set and review salaries and benefits of all state officers – which means that MPs will no longer fix their own salaries (Art.230). And any law passed by Parliament that benefits members of parliament as such (not just because they are also members of the public) could not come into effect until after the following general election (Art. 116(3)) – so that the voters have the chance to throw out the MPs who have benefited themselves in this way before they have reaped the benefit....




Each day I get a better reason to say ....'Yes'

I think we are better off with the new constitution.... what makes you think you are safe with this one when the same MPs have the powers to change the boundaries and dish out constituencies without consulting you? they can increase the numbers and we still wont do anything... As Fundaah says, i think they are trying to beat the constitution by awarding themselves hefty increases so that by the time it passes, it will be odd to review it downwards....

Vote yes with me and we shall have powers to kick the bloody thieves out of their seats if they pull that one on us!

The said institution can't adjust the salaries downwards since the same document says that no benefits that will be adjusted to disfavour the office holders.

I agree with @Wendz. Our society and institutions needs change and our only home for change is via the new constitution. That way we can have a say in the way we are governed including recalling an MP who we feel has gone against what he / she promised during the campaigns.

My vote is a strong YES!!

The same MPs will legislates how an MP can be kicked out...........you tell me how objective that ACT will be. I can bet on my boda boda that they will make it near impossible to recall any of their own...........

But atleast with the new draft .....they wont have the powers to go higher than where they have put themselves .....With the current constitution and their shameless selves ....they can give themselves more...than the paltry Kshs 8billion
