So we can actually do that. Now excuse me, he wanted to talk. He can come and present. Although I don’t know when, you
have just arrived? Okey, so we will give you 2 minutes to present your views.
James Gitau Kinyanjui: Ningependa wale watu,
Interjection – Com. Kabira: Sorry by the way, who are you? Please give your name for the purposes of records.
James Gitau Kinyanjui: Naitwa James Gitau Kinyanjui, ningalipenda yule mtu ambae anakula pesa ya umma adhibiwe vikali.
Kuadhibiwa ni kama apelekwe kwa uwanja, apigwe risasi, raiya wakiwa hapo, ili awe funzo kwa wengine, ambao wataajiriwa
kuangalia mali ya uma. Maana ile shida tunae, imeletwa na hawa walaghai. Wanakula pesa ile ambayo tunatoa kodi. Ni hiyo
tu.
Com. Kabira: Thank you very much. So you closed the session, you are the last person and thank you very much for your
views. I think I am going to hand over to the acting chair of the committee to take it on from here.
Acting Chairman: I think you all will join me in expressing our gratitude to Prof. Kabira, for the way they have conducted the
exercise of receiving our views from this constituency. Again, together, especially we here in the front, express our thanks to
the few of you, who have remained behind, to see this exercise through to the end. Otherwise if you were not there, we would
not have had the courage to address empty chairs, but since we have a few of you infront of us, we are having this closing
words.
There are two Commissioners we have had in this constituency, have taught us how to be democratic, how to be tolerant and
persevering, and how to be devoted when you are given a duty. Yesterday the exercise ended at towards 6:00 ‘O’; clock and
we were prepared to take the same time, if there people still wanting to give their views. So professor thank you very much,
and we pray to God to keep you and to continue in other areas, we know you have got difficult tasks to try and cover this
country, receiving the views of the people.
You also saw the determination of the people and, this should encrourage you, when you go back and after you have received
all the views, you and the others, should know that the wananchi are taking this exercise very very seriously, and the reward you
can give them, is to give them a good Constitution; and you will be remembered for a long for doing that. So I think those few
words are enough, for the few who are here, probably if the hall was full, I would have probably been forced to say much
more. Otherwise thank you very much. We are also grateful to our co-ordinator who has been with us, and who prepared us
well, because what you saw Com. Wanjiku, is because of the trouble, your coordinator has taken with us here in this
constituency. He has not spared any energies to ensure that people are mobilized, and I am sure you have seen the presentation
yesterday and today, they were to be given by people who have been prepared. Also for your staff, we are also grateful,
