Joseph Samuel Waiganjo: Yah. Your honorable Commissioners. Our memorandums contain 18 points which are self<br />
explanatory but I would like to point out a few <strong>of</strong> them. First Kenyans are commited to the democratic values <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>constitution</strong>alism, equality and the rule <strong>of</strong> law. On national philosophy and guiding principals we recommend that children,<br />
young people, the elderly, and other vulnerable groups should be protected. Also on the same point, we recommend that<br />
all power and authorities derived from the people have to be governed through their will and concern not otherwise. On<br />
democratic principles we recommend that all power and authorities derived from the people <strong>of</strong> <strong>kenya</strong>. And the people<br />
have to be governed through their will and the social cultural and development rights.
