one. Paul Karimi hayuko? Wilson Gichinga. Francis Mbuya yuko? Peter Ndirangu?<br />

Peter Ndirangu: Jina langu ni Peter Ndirangu, I am a technician, na nimetoka hapa Wangige. Jambo lile ningetaka kuongea<br />

habari yake, au mambo mengi ningetaka kusema; kile nilikuwa nimeandika kimeshatajwa; kwa hivyo sina haja ya kurudia. I<br />

will mix both languages.<br />

What I have in mind is that the Constitution we have, hatukuako tumeielewa. Kwa hivyo hii Constitution ilikuwa inabadilishwa<br />

hapa na pale, na hatujui. Kwa hivyo we are asking the Commissioners, if we have got to have the Constitution we want to<br />

make, lazima Constitution iwe itafunzwa. Civic education should continue even after implementation, in our schools, and even<br />

to all the institutions. Mambo ya distribution <strong>of</strong> our local resources should be looked after; kwa sababu pesa zile zote ambazo<br />

zinachukuliwa kutoka local councils zetu, they are transferred to some other local councils. Kwa hivyo inawacha local council<br />

zetu zikiwa na shida; kwa hivyo lazima pesa ambazo tunatoa, ziwe zinahudumia wale ambao wametoa hizo pesa. So as to be<br />

able to create employment to our people.<br />

The other thing is to safeguard our people against substandard goods. As a technician, najua kuna vitu vingi, ambazo<br />

zimerundikwa hapa. So many things have been landed here, which do not care for us at all. Kwa hivyo inatakikana, na<br />

ingewezekana, serikali yetu itulinde sana kwa substandard goods. The Bureau <strong>of</strong> Standard pia lazima ifanye kazi yake. We<br />

have got so many goods that are produced, which do not meet our requirements at all. Kwa hivyo, lazima Bureau <strong>of</strong><br />

Standards, ifanye kazi yake vilivyo.<br />

The other thing is to finance the political parties. Tunazo vyama ambazo zimeandikishwa, chama ambazo nyingi zao zina<br />

umuhimu wake, lakini when we come to the election period; wanaambiwa wakae kivyao. Kanu inafanya mambo yake, and we<br />

know Kanu government ndio imekuwa na serikali, kwa hivyo watu wao ndio wako na pesa. Kwa hivyo tungetaka, even in the<br />

next general elections, wawe financed. Political parties zetu, kama Democratic Party na zingine ambazo zina umuhimu wake,<br />

zipewe pesa na serikali.<br />

Mambo ya akina chief: Hii mambo imezungumzwa, and if the institution <strong>of</strong> the chief has got to be there, lazima yule mtu ambae<br />

atachaguliwa; awe elected by the people it has been said, ni lazima mtu ambae ameelimika. Nimeangalia kama mwananchi wa<br />

hapa, infact since the time <strong>of</strong> Dedan, our senior chief by that particular time. Zile baraza ambazo tunaitwa hapa, tunaitwa baraza<br />

tu wakati kuna shida. Our chiefs, we are lucky to have our MP hapa. Hatuitwi baraza to be sensitized na mambo ambayo<br />

inatuhusu sisi. Wakati tunapata shida, wakati pombe imekunyiwa, wakati kumeibiwa, huo ndio wakati chief anaita baraza zake.<br />

We want if that particular institution has got to remain, lazima wawe wakiita mabaraza ndio tuwe tukijua tunafanya nini.<br />

Mambo ya kanisa pia iliongewa. Nimekuwa mshiriki kabisa, na kwa sababu hatujui yale madini ambayo yameandikiswha siku<br />

hizi, they are so many, na kwa hivyo inatakikana ipunguzwe, ndio tuwe na makanisa ambayo inatakikana. Thank you.<br />
