The National Assembly has passed all proposed amendments to the elections Act amid protests from ODM leaning MPs.
MPs on Thursday morning debated changes proposed by the Legal Affairs Committee, which among other things, reinstated provisions for manual identification of voters in case the electronic system fails.
The House also adopted a proposal for manual transmission of results, which the Orange party had opposed.
The Jubilee Party took advantage of its numbers in the House to push through the changes to Elections Laws
Leo? Ha ha
We don’t have to oppose everything just to creat unnecessary issues

Yes, because if we were to ask Millie Odhiambo, Opiyo Wandayi and Peter Kaluma what should happen in the event of a power failure or loss of 3G network, they would just whip out their whistles and get a-blowin’.

Tyranny of numbers comes in handy when it’s time to protect eating opportunities.
Looking forward to MPs using this new found energy to pass non MP related bills. But most likely they’ll come up with an excuse to prolong the term.

Passing the bill is a move in the right direction. Anybody can sabotage power supply and throw the election process in shambles.

Even @Wakanyama can sabotage power if Uhuru is in the verge of losing.

JUBILEE GOVERNMENT ACHIEVEMENTS 2 YEARS
Under the leadership of Uhuru Kenyatta and William Samoei Ruto
ELECTRICITY
Kenya under Jubilee Government has added 514.9 megawatts of electricity to her National Grid bringing the total to 2,125 megawatts; a 31% growth in total generation capacity.
This has thus enabled the Jubilee government to connect 18,424 of the 21,500 primary schools to electricity. Also, the total number of users connected to electricity has grown by over 41% between March 2013 and today, raising the customer base to 3,150,000 Kenyans.
GEOTHERMAL
Kenya is now the world’s eighth-largest geothermal producer with a steam power capacity of 579 megawatts. This has reduced Consumer Electricity Bills by 25% since August 2014.
ECONOMY
The World Bank and other economic factors indicate that Kenya is now a middle-income nation since 2014. Our GDP is at USD 53.3 billion with GDP per capita at USD 1,246.
Kenya is one of the fastest growing economies in the world with an economic growth of 6 percent.
Out of the 57 fastest-growing economies ranked by Bloomberg, Kenya was the third fastest growing economy behind China and the Philippines.
INFRASTRUCTURE:
Close to half of the 609 km standard gauge railway track is already excavated and ready for sleepers; the Port of Lamu is on course. A new terminal (terminal 1A which currently carries 80% of all business at JKIA) has also been completed.
SERVICE DELIVERY:
The Jubilee Government introduced Huduma Centers and e-Citizen Government Services Portal which has digitalized services like renewal of Driving Licenses, Business Name Searches and Registration of Marriages, Passport Applications and Official Land Searches.
Huduma Kenya has since won over 5 global awards.
The NYS has been restructured and they are really helping in upgrading of informal settlements such as Kibera, Mathare, Korogocho, Mukuru Kwa Njenga and Kiandutu in Thika.
The Jubilee government also established the National Land Titling Centre, which has processed close to 400,000 new title deeds to date.
HEALTH:
The Jubilee Government also introduced Free Maternal Hospital Services and intends to have cancer centers across the nation
EMPOWERMENT:
The Jubilee Government has so far disbursed over 5.3 Billion Shillings of the UWEZO Fund to benefit social groups economically.
DEVOLUTION:
Counties get more than the constitution says. Funding to counties has increased from 190 billion shillings in the first financial year to 226 billion in the current financial year, and projecting 258 billion shillings in the next financial year, well beyond the 15% minimum.
NATIONAL HEALING:
Jubilee intends to establish a 10 billion shillings kitty over the next three years to be used for restorative justice for Kenyans who have suffered historical injustices like PEV.
We Believe in Kusema na Kutenda

We forget quickly, but there was that day this year when a monkey is said to have caused a national blackout. There must be back-up measures in place.
Interestingly, ODM was part of the formulation of the safeguards, then JaKuon hears of it and it becomes part of his rigging claims, so he sends his noisiest pitbull bitch to raise a ruckus at the doors of Parliament.

Heko kwa Jubilee MPs for seeing the plot ilikuwa inapikwa. CORD wamenaswa. Michael Yard, naswa
that is why there is security! the same way manual transmission may increase as it gets to the tally centre.
there is no real argument here. just jubilants fighting a noble move because they want to rig.
