A new survey by mzalendo.com has revealed that most of the 349 lawmakers in the 12th parliament are yet to make their maiden speech in the August house with only seven MPs spotted as the most consistent and active in debates taking place on the floor of the House.
According to Mzalendo's finding the following MPs have been found to be more serious in the house, they include, Majority leader Aden Duale, Minority leader John Mbadi, Chris Wamalwa(Kiminini), James Nyikal(Seme), Makali Mulu(Kitui Central), Kimani Ichungwa(Kikuyu),and Opiyo Wandayi(Ugunja).
Confirming the details of the survey, National Assembly speaker Mr Justin Muturi endorsed the findings stating that he misses the era of great debaters in parliament.
"You can tell members who don't read bills, petitions, and reports among others. They are hardly in the House and they don't contribute to issues," said Muturi.
"Over nine months down the line, a majority of them have no clue how they are required to behave in the Chambers and even at the Committee level," he added.
So far the 12th parliament members have passed 16 Bills in nine months and President Uhuru Kenyatta has assented to 6.
