Charles Kamau Mwangi: My names are Charles Kamau Mwangi and I would ask for an extra minute, so that I can be able<br />

to give my points.<br />

As far as the <strong>constitution</strong> is concerned, a <strong>constitution</strong> is something, which is supposed to be or supposed to have a preamble,<br />

and the current <strong>constitution</strong> does not have a preamble. The preamble itself should have or the Kenya <strong>constitution</strong> should have a<br />

preamble <strong>of</strong> which should define the roles <strong>of</strong> <strong>constitution</strong>, the <strong>constitution</strong> belongs to who and how it is supposed to be<br />

enhanced.<br />

The constituional supremacy; The <strong>constitution</strong> should have it’s own supremacy and power <strong>of</strong> the parliament should have a limit<br />

to amend the <strong>constitution</strong>, to amend the <strong>constitution</strong> the public should be involved through referendum. The referundum should<br />

be conducted by the presidential appointee subjected to the parliament.<br />

.<br />

The three arms <strong>of</strong> the government; since in a democratic country, the government should have a separated power and define the<br />

role <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>fices <strong>of</strong> this power, that is the executive, the judicial and the parliament.<br />

I will start with the parliament. The parliament should have its own fixed terms and develop its own calendar, without<br />

interference from executive and judicial, the parliament should approve all presidential appointee and to in-peach the president<br />

from the <strong>of</strong>fice if she or he is <strong>of</strong>f duty. And at this juncture all Member <strong>of</strong> Parliament should be full time occupation, so that they<br />

can be able to address all the problems facing the country. The age should be one <strong>of</strong> the requirements for a contester <strong>of</strong> any<br />

parliamentary seat or parliament, the age should be between 21 years and 70 years for the parliament and for the president it<br />

should be 35 and 75 years.<br />

The salary and the benefits <strong>of</strong> M.Ps should be determined by the public Service Commission.
