waKenya, Wakenya ambao watajenga taifa hili. Hili ni taifa letu, natusipo lijenga, hakuna watu wengine watalijenga. Kwa

akiwa katika kile chama chake, as long as yeye ni mbunge. Asanteni sana.
Com. Kabira: Thank you very much Mr. Gatiba Nyanja. Can we listen to Timothy Thendeu?
Timothy Thendeu: Nimewasalimu nyote hamjambo? My views are as follows:
First is the senior appointments of professionals should be done by their associations or boards or the AGM. It should not be
done by one person. Appointing professionals whereby they are questionable even to their boards.
No. 2. Is the upgrading of our prisons and remand prisons, whereby they would meet minimum human, habitable conditions.
The way they are now, they can be condemned; and I don’t think it is that we don’t have the money, it is because we don’t
have the money.
No. 3. We have, although we are talking of private hospitals, private schools, the way we are in Kenya, we have people who
have money, and if they can afford private schools, they should continue taking their children to private schools. I am even
going further to request, if we could have private courts, whereby instead of waiting e.g at Kikuyu you wait for your case for so
long. If you can have private courts, where one can take he’s or her case, it can be taken on quickly, as long as you have the
money and you can afford.
No. 4. Also I want to request the Njonjo Land Commission to retract and reclaim stolen public land; so that it can be given
back, and they should be given back.
No.5. The university education should be relevant to the needs of our country; as much as it can be possible. I always wonder,
when I go to Kinari Forest, I went to Kinari when I was taking my child there, and I found that there are no trees at Kinari.
Then I wondered, do we have people getting a Masters degree in forestry in the university. What kind of a degree did that
person get, if Kinari there is no forest. So can we make our university edcation, as relevant as possible to our needs. I would
point further, if we can have all the ministries affiliated with the relevant, university department, they could go together. If it is
Education, we have such as they are going together . That is all I had, thank you for your time. (clapping)
Com. Kabira: Thank you very much Timothy. Do we have Simon Mbugua? He is not there. John Kirui Kinyanjui.
John Kinyanjui: Good afternoon everybody. First of all is to thank all the brains that are behind the formation of the
Constitutional Review of Kenya. The formation of the Constitutional review of Kenya, is something which has been overdue,
