“I may resign but Parliament is constituted by quorum as long as there are fifty of us we will still transact business,” Daniel Manduku.
Manduku went on to say that if Kenya held an election in light of recent developments, Kenyans would vote more responsibly.
According to the legislator, Kenyans have voted along party lines rather than based on individuals, resulting in the “six-piece” voting pattern.
He went on to say that his proposal to dissolve the parliament was unpopular with his colleagues, who had pushed him to resign rather than dissolve the parliament.
However, he maintained that the recent invasion of the Parliament demonstrates the institution’s failure to maintain order, respect, and public trust.
Manduku also proposed that Kenya implement a scheduled election system in which leaders for various positions are elected at different intervals.
According to the MP, this would allow Kenyans to accurately rate their leaders and vote objectively.
“The only thing we would have to do is ensure that these elections are affordable,” he said.
