Monday, 7 May 2012CONSTITUTIONAL PETITION 175 OF 2012, IS OF GREAT NATIONAL IMPORTANCE!
CONSTITUTIONAL PETITION 175 OF 2012, IS OF GREAT NATIONAL IMPORTANCE!
On 19TH April, 2012, the Finance Minister, Hon. Njeru Githae, covertly introduced two amendments to the Finance Bill. The 1st amendment was to alter the National Assembly Remuneration Act in order increase the pay of the Deputy Speaker of Parliament and the members of the Chairmen’s panel by an additional Kshs.2.4million per annum to be paid as Parliamentary Responsibility Allowance, backdated to 1st January 2006. An additional Kshs.1.2 million per annum, demarcated as Parliamentary Responsibility allowance is to be paid to the Parliamentary Service Commissioner, also back dated to 1st January 2006.
The 2nd amendment was to increase the benefits of all the members of the National Assembly by increasing their severance allowance from the Kshs 300,000 per year to Kshs 744,000 per year, multiplied over the years of service. These two amendments were passed, without objection within a matter of minutes.
It is with deep sadness, regret and rage that I tell you today, that these amendments have received presidential assent.
It’s the classic and may I say chronic case of parliamentarians increasing their own salaries, via acts of parliament, swiftly and without objection from any quarters to the detriment of all Kenyans. Already, our MPs earn salaries and allowances significantly higher than other MPs around the world, higher than even more developed nations that have higher GDPs. Add onto that, they as a collective had to be forced to pay tax, a matter that indicates their own lack of nationalism and rejection of citizen responsibility. But what adds insult to injury is the fact that they would pass a bill in direct contravention of the Supreme Law of Kenya, a law they swore to uphold barely 2 years ago.
In fact, in 2011, to avoid the financial implications of paying tax, the then Finance Minister, Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta, introduced the Appropriations Bill, which sought to utilize the National Disasters Contingency fund in order to pay tax to KRA on behalf of the Parliamentary Service Commission. Can you imagine a government determined to pay tax to itself on behalf of 222 MPs to the tune of 2.4 billion kshs? It’s outrageous!
What is so distressing is not just the utter selfishness of such acts, but the nerve to ignore laws put in place to govern this nation. These amendments are ultra vires, that is, in direct contravention of Article 230 of the constitution, which places the responsibility of salary reviews into the hands of the Salaries and Remunerations Commission.
When the doctors, nurses and healthcare workers went on strike demanding better pay, they were told to wait for the Salaries and Remunerations Commission. In fact the government at the time, through the Finance Ministry claimed that they had no money. Now this same ministry has found money, enough to pay out millions of shillings back dated to 2006, not only to the current sitting MPs but even those we voted out in the previous election!
Is the Kenya constitution just a piece of toilet paper that these parliamentarians can use and discard at will? What about our votes, do they not count at all? When we voted out previous leaders, we wanted to put an end to their service, now that they no longer serve Kenyans why should they be paid? If I get fired, I won’t receive a severance pay 6 years down the line!
This action has led Jayne Mati, a private citizen and member of the Mars Group Kenya to file petition 175 at the constitutional division of the High Court of Kenya. Needless to say, this petition is of grave national importance. Our nation is plagued by poor leadership, and we the ordinary citizens had hoped that a new constitution would bring an end to the plunder we have endured since independence. But with impunity, no consideration whatsoever and complete disregard to our supreme law, the MPs, the Deputy Speaker and even the President flouted this precious document by this act of parliament.
We have a rogue parliament; there is no other way to describe it. As I write this, the nation’s attention is captured by the matter of MPs defecting from political parties and creating or joining others without giving up their seats in parliament. This country, through its so called legislators, has turned into a lawless state, where every law that is not convenient to the desires and whims of a politician is flouted, ignored, broken, dismissed. Our constitution is not respected; our legislative institutions are abused by ALL of them.
According to article 116 of the constitution; “An act of Parliament that confers a direct pecuniary interest on members of Parliament shall not come into force until after the next general election of members of Parliament”. So this current parliament cannot, by law, increase their salaries, benefits or severance pay.
It is time the citizens of this country truly woke up to their political responsibility and helped put an end to this madness. I am truly irked to no end by the laxity I see, and general political apathy among the electorate. Why do the citizens of this nation believe that their responsibility towards good governance starts and ends with a vote? More irritatingly, why do you believe that by voting in different people you have brought change to Kenya? Didn’t you vote in new MPs in the last election? And yet now your taxpayers’ money will go to pay more money to the MPs you voted out, and the ones you voted in, in direct contravention of the constitution! Its time we woke up from this neurotic slumber.
Article 1 of the constitution clearly states that “All Sovereign powers belong to the people of Kenya and shall be exercised only in accordance with this constitution.” It is not just your pockets that are at stake in this particular matter, but the very essence of being Kenyan, who you are, your identity and your very citizenry. Clearly, these MPs have declared war on justice, and on the sovereignty of our nation, and its time we fought back. Our nation cannot, and will not be held to ransom by a handful of people who by their actions demonstrate such a high disregard for our Supreme Law and institutions that their actions can even be interpreted as treacherous. Kenyans, petition 175 is of great national importance, and crucial to the future of our country.

Greedy MPS will not access CDF Money …… to be frozen for all MPs
Wednesday October 10, 2012 – Constituency Development Fund (CDF) for all 210 Constituencies will be frozen as soon as the terms of the current members of parliament end.
Planning Minister Wycliffe Oparanya told the National Assembly that the accounts would be made inactive to avoid misuse of funds in the absence of the legislators.
The Minister said all the accounts would be frozen by January 15, 2013.
“We have experienced problems in the past where CDF lost some fund during the transition period. So once our term ends on January 15 next year, we will freeze the accounts but we will allow Constitutuency Funds Committees to continue until new MPs are elected,”Oparanya said told the House.
The move comes amid widespread outrage from members of the public over MPs attempt to steal from the taxpayer by awarding themselves Sh 2.2 billion send off package, a move that was thwarted by President Mwai Kibaki who declined to assent to the bill.
The Kenyan DAILY POST
OMG!! Ole Sakuda who joined recently is a hyena too?? And Beth Mugo who is a cousin of Uhuru Kenyatta. All the money she floats in from exploiting gems in Taita Taveta is not enough? Greedy Kikuyu woman! Many Kenyan MPs are totally useless and should not be re-elected.

Press Statement by Friends of Raila Lobby Group – FORA (Mt. Kenya Chapter) and Mwanzo Mpya Lobby Group
11th October 2012
Our attention has recently been drawn to a dangerous trend of balkanisation of the country into tribal and regional chiefdoms disguised as Political Party Defections and Political Mobilisation.
It has not escaped our attention that the recent carefully choreographed so called defections from other parties to the TNA Party have one commonality;
The Politicians are largely drawn from the Mount Kenya and surrounding regions and appears to be part of a wider plot to revive GEMA and perpetuate the politics of regional exclusion, domination and exploitation that characterised the dark days of post independence Kenya. During the days of the GEMA Hegemony, the ruling elite, complete with their courtiers and state machinery that allocated resources and drafted policy were similarly drawn from one region and were arguably responsible for the skewed public service appointments favouring one region and the disparity in development that many regions in Kenya experience today.
Looking back to the genesis of the formation of the TNA Party, the following public events clearly catalogue the conception, midwifery, birth and ownership of the TNA Party;
In 1971, The Gikuyu, Embu, and Meru Association (GEMA), was formed to advance the social and political needs of the peoples descended from the mythological figure Mumbi.
During its existence in the 1970s GEMA was widely associated with a move to change the constitution to stop President Moi from ascending to the Presidency by succeeding President Kenyatta. The GEMA Leaders supposedly wanted the leadership of Kenya to remain within the GEMA community to the exclusion of other regions.
1n 1980 GEMA was formally banned together with other tribal groupings in a bid to foster National Unity and Cohesion.
Thirty two years later, on 23rd March 2012, the GEMA leadership met, yet again, under the chairmanship of Bishop Dr. Lawi Imathiu at the Jumuiya Conference Centre, Limuru to chart the way forward for the GEMA Community and their mode of conducting business hadn’t changed at all. Yet again, like in the 1970s when GEMA leaders sought to stop Moi from ascending to the Presidency, this time round their declared objective was to stop Raila Odinga from ascending to the Presidency even if it meant changing the law. This kind of intolerance is a clear and present danger to TNAs current or potential partners.
The GEMA meeting of 23rd March culminated into the GEMA Declaration of 23rd March 2012 which mandated Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta to offer the GEMA Community political leadership by forming a GEMA Community based political party through which they would seek the Presidency. He was mandated to report back to the GEMA leadership within 30 Days.
TNA was subsequently launched on 20th May 2012 within the GEMA mandated 30 days. Subsequent to its formation all energies of the party have been aggressively geared towards intimidating all regional based political parties to wind themselves up with total disregard of their ideologies. The only criteria being legitimised is belonging to the GEMA communities. Something has got to be wrong with this approach.
Whereas the Communities that have been drafted into the GEMA Tribal grouping comprises ordinary hardworking and patriotic Kenyans who yearn for a unified brotherhood of all Kenyans rather than an ethnicised exclusive tribal club, the so called GEMA leaders have continued to misuse their communities for selfish political and financial gain.
We are also aware that the same forces behind the revival of GEMA to the detriment of other regions are the same forces that have taken every opportunity to sabotage the implementation of the new constitution exemplified in the creation of county commissioners to undermine elected governors, the dilution of the spirit and principle of devolution, attempts at reduction of funding to county governments and watering down of constitutional provisions on integrity and leadership.
This same cabal are intent on sabotaging the ongoing judicial reforms that have increasingly given rise to an independent judiciary that is closed to manipulation and external influence. They wish to craft a judiciary that is blind to corruption and impunity, complicit in protecting ill gotten wealth, oblivious to Chapter 6 of the Constitution on leadership and integrity and an abetter in bastardising the Political Parties Act. They wish to put justice up for sale and create a commercialised parliament where MPs can be bought to sanitise and give a clean bill of health to looters of public coffers.
We are alarmed that all this is happening at a time when regional militias and terror groups have coincidentally mushroomed and boomeranged in ODM Strongholds and are operating with increasing boldness, impunity and high visibility with the audacity to even launch a machete attack on an ODM aligned Minister in broad daylight.
This tribal and regional mobilisation disguised as Political Defections work to divide rather than unite Kenyans. Occasional ‘Defectors’ from other regions are occasionally drafted into the matrix to give the rainbow effect but the DNA of the TNA is of a purely GEMA parentage.
We wish to take this early opportunity to warn Kenyans that there is strength in our diversity and our tribe is Kenya. Political mobilisation on the basis of tribal or regional loyalties does not bode well for our beloved country Kenya and must be condemned by all Kenyans who yearn for a peaceful, united Kenya with equal opportunity for all persons.
A peaceful, prosperous and united Kenya that respects diversity, equality of opportunity for all and respect for national institutions and the rule of law is what Kenyans have come to expect. This is only possible through the full implementation of the new constitution that guarantees inclusiveness, equity and equal opportunities for all. This is what an ODM Government under the leadership of the Rt. Hon Raila Amolo Odinga will deliver to Kenyans.
Thank You.
