The Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, Hon. Moses Cheboi, has lauded the House Democracy Partnership (HDP), the International Republican Institute (IRI) and the National Democratic Institute (NDI) for their continued collaboration with the National Assembly, which has seen them develop capacity for Members of the National Assembly and staff, indefatigably, over the years.

The National Democratic Institute (NDI) is keen to support the growth of Parliamentary Democracy in Kenya. Speaking when he called on the Speaker of the National Assembly Hon. Justin Muturi, the Global President of the Institute Mr. Kenneth Wollack lauded the steps that Parliament has taken towards the implementation of the constitution of Kenya 2010, and its increased vigour in the discharge of its now expanded mandate in over-sighting the executive.

The Speaker of the National Assembly Hon. Justin Muturi has congratulated former Members of Parliament for coming together and forming an association to cater for their general welfare.

The Post-Election Seminar kicked off this morning at the Pride Inn Paradise Hotel in Mombasa, with calls on Members to nurture parliamentary democracy as well as entrench themselves as the vanguards of the welfare of the people, in between elections.
