i was opposed to the constitution because of the massive increase in size of gvt(more MPs,Senators,women reps+huge county gvt).However as per this particular change in the elections Act i think is refreshing.My reasoning has always been that by the time you reach the point of being a viable presidential candidate you have something to offer the country and you should not have to end your political career just because you lost a presidential contest.Some of the candidates would make terrible presidents in my opinion but are valuable in contributing to other areas that would help the country.

I agree with you!!!


It is unconstitutional to the letter.

Does the letter of the constitution forbid an aspirant from running for 2 seats? Which article?


The aspirant running for Presidency is forbidden, read your laws again.
You must have voted with the Euphoria that swept NyaNZA AND kIBERA.

"From the reactions, one can tell that most of those throwing insults at MPs never watched the debates in Parliament and are not even aware of the laws altered leave alone the reasoning behind the amendments. Some have gone to the extent of claiming that the Constitution has been changed".........

Some of the ammendments will be kicked out. Lakini hiyo tabia mbaya kutoka bunge.
