Garissa Political analyst Hillary Obure welcomes the party hopping bill saying it will tune politicians to be disciplined.
He says most politicians have a tendency of jumping from one political party to another so as to serve their own personal interests and not those of the people, adding that all they want is power and not serving the people and will do anything to be in power.
He went on to say that some join parties without even considering party manifestos, which binds delivery to Kenyans.
“Most politicians seek to join parties that will guarantee them power, and now this will be different for they will not be jumping ship at will. They will be forced to deliver under this parties and not opting for ways out,” says Obure.
He adds that it will enable them deliver from the parties they chose to stick with.
The bill was passed to deter politicians from switching sides when they lose on the preliminaries.
