Jambo lingine ni kazi: Wanafunzi wengi wanapomaliza shule wanakosa kazi wanakuwa ni kuzurura tu huko mitaani. Kwa hivyo
ningependelea kwamba, kuwe na kazi ambayo mwanafunzi akimaliza shule anapata, elimu isiwe haina maana.
Jambo lingine ningependelea Serikali ipatie mashule televisioni na maredio. Hii ni kwa sababu kupitia hivi vyombo, inafanya
elimu iwe bora zaidi kwa sababu wanafunzi watapata maarifa zaidi kupitia vyombo hivi.
Jambo lingine, wanafunzi wapewe wakati wa kushiriki katika michezo. Sio kila wakati wako darasani tu wanasoma lakini
washiriki hata katika michezo. Asante.
Com. Bishop Njoroge: Asante sana. Tutarudi kwa list, nilisema hivi; watu wataitwa kulingana na vile walivyokuja. Kwa
kawaida yetu ni kwamba, isipokuwa wanafunzi na waalimi, hatupendi kupita mtu. Yule aliyependa kuzungumza, angekuja

mjamzito, nitakubali waalimu na wanafunzi warudi shule lakini hao wengine watafuata ile orodha ya majina, kila mtu nafikiri
angependa kwenda. What is your problem? You are a teacher? Which school? You come here, you qualify.

an oath of allegiance subscribing to the oath that since this office is a Constitutional creation, he shall be subject to any
subordinate to the Constitution. Secondly, I wish to propose that the Vice-President should be voted for directly by the people
and upon the death, resignation or dismissal of the President, he should assume all the powers and prerogatives of that office. In
such an event, the Vice President shall be deemed to have completed his first five-year term. I also wish to propose the
inclusion of an impeachment Act in our Constitution, clearly stipulating grounds upon which the President can be removed
through a vote of no confidence. I also wish to propose the creation of the Office of the Prime Minister who shall be the Head
of the Government and who shall be responsible for making all senior appointments subject to parliamentary scrutiny and
ratification or rather approval.
I also wish to suggest that the Police Act should be changed so that the Commissioner of Police shall be appointed by the Prime
Minister subject to parliamentary approval and that he shall be answerable to Parliament for all acts of commission or omission
committed by his staff.
I also wish to propose the creation of a new office, the office of the ombudsman. This office shall be tenured, the office shall be
