We should also allow room for a Prime Minister who will sit in Parliament and be in charge and answerable to the day to day<br />

running of the Government.<br />

The Federal system of Government should be put in place so that it safe guards various interests of various ethnic groups.<br />

The Presidents powers should be reduced.<br />

We must in our society also provide constitutional protection for a hundred percent moral and ethical...<br />

Com. Abubakar : Qualification...<br />

Mr. Wilson arap Soi : Qualification.<br />

The people should also have a right to recall their Mp or Councillor in case of dismal performance or desertion of responsibility<br />

within the Ward of Constituency.<br />

Com. Abubakar : Sawa. [inaudible] Bwana Wilson...<br />

Mr. Wilson arap Soi : Yes<br />

Com. Abubakar : I told people that if you are giving in a memorandum you should only voice the important points which<br />

you will share with others. We will process that memoranda ourselves.<br />

Mr. Wilson arap Soi : Thank you that is exactly what I am doing. The rights of vulnerable groups , the interests with<br />

people with disabilities are not fully taken care of at present. There should be provision in the Budget to assist the less fortunate<br />

members of this society. Again there should be provision for nomination of such an interest of which in this case I consider the<br />

disabled people to be given a chance in both the Council and Parliamentary nominations.<br />

There are other groups which I do consider to be vulnerable even though Kericho District is said to be rich, there certain<br />

pockets of areas which are marginal and over the years they have been overlooked and I would like their rights to be respected<br />

within their Constitution. These are areas which are bordering the neighbouring Districts and ethnical groups like those who are<br />

bordering Luo land and Kisii. And again those who are naturally marginal they should be given their right to employment, to<br />

Government services equally like others. What I am talking about here is when it comes to employment, recruitment even for<br />

teachers you will get those who come from marginal pocket areas are less considered.<br />
