I'm getting the impression that he is getting better than a number of practising lawyers. Way better than the likes of Murkomen who claims to have a Master's Degree in Law.
Omtatah is the top most staid,astute, resolute patriotic and solemnly ingenious activist and politician in Kenya! He is simply clear; trouble-shooting every aspect of Kenya’s socio-economic and political engineering malfunctions . He is a perfectionist par excellence. His ideas are honestly objectionable, executable/implementable and constitutional. The let down is solely on the persons in power; and the general political will of the ruling elite. Kenyans need affirmative, radical and revolutionary change in all these matters.
This regime has created the best environment to educate Kenyans about their responsibility in managing the country and that it doesn't end with the vote. I'm sure not many Kenyans even know that Article 1 clause 1 says "All sovereign power belongs to the people of Kenya and shall be exercised only in accordance with this Constitution." and clause 2 "The people may exercise their sovereign power either DIRECTLY or through democratically elected leaders " Civil education to teach these laws in an approachable way and not using jargon will allow interest to build as it is the heavy and latinized words used by lawyers and their folk which make it seem like a subject that can't be handled by the common mwananchi. Isikuwe about kuonyesha mmesoma tu. And somehow we also decided that the National anthem is just for interviews, sporting and official events??? those words mean something especially in Kiswahili, when we get lost behind political parties it is a reminder of what should be our priority. Lakini watu wangapi wanajua all stanzas? Rooting for your cause.
Your guest Okiya Omtata is highly intelligent and well informed about the law and the kenyan constitution. He has stated very ably what kenyan people and their leaders need to do sort out elections and public financial management for a better kenya. Kudos Bwana Senator.
busia voters chose well..very well..leadership is about integrity and vision..i wish we kenyan voters had the foresight of voting in omkiya omtatas from mca to president..kenya would change in one year
He teied becoming Senator in Nairobi. I voted for him, and he lost badly. We need better voter education so that voters can know to make better choices, and we can have more of this type of guy in governance.
The man is intelligent and robust in the constitution. The man is brilliant. Eric nimejifunza mengi kwa huyu Mheshimiwa Mpeni maua yake!!! Anajua katiba kama chai ya asubuhi. Then he is wise. He has the capacity to correctly make choice of words. Kudos Eric !!
Hats off, Okiya. With 10 individuals of his calibre, the Republic of Kenya will never be the same. If only the powers that be would listen to this voice of reason, heaven will Def be a place on earth 🌍. Cry my beloved 💞😍❤ Africa, you are bleeding so much. Poleni sana Continent yangu. NEGLIGENCE, INCOMPETENCE and SABOTAGE. What more can be said of Africa in general and Kenya in particular? 90% of the work done in parliament is USELESS 😢😂😢😮😅
Such brilliant and unbiased minds should be rewarded with roads/ streets/parks/ football stadia/rivers.......named after them when they are still alive!!!
Omtatah is right our elected leaders are not autonomous when it comes to making laws. They all agree and do everything their party leaders ask them to do. The truth is they never represent the people who elected them.
okiyah omtatah is right. technology never fails. it is humans that fail. part of system design is designing for redundancy. this is why kplc is experiencing blackouts - they suck at designing for redundancy. every well designed system should have a back up that kicks in whenever an unexpected error occurs. please note: unexpected error. it is feasible to design systems that reduce the risk of failure to near zero. this is extremely important to understand.
Omtata starting with his interpretation of the proverb demonstrates his super intelligence. Kenyans should be immensely grateful to have him in government. 🎉. The constitution sets the floor not the ceiling for voting methods. Eric your question reallly demonstrated a very low threshold for what Id call common sense.of course we need and have the capacity for a digital voting system . The problem however like digitization of the land registry like Ndu says is potential for manipulation and in my assessment is the good will of the government.
This man has clarity of thought. Zakayos legal advisors should sit and take notes. They draft bills but never use the constitution as the architecture for their schemes. They'd rather change the constitution than use their minds.
this guy is a walking encyclopedia! thanks a lot eric and your team for bringing the senator to enlighten us! they say “ my people die because of lack of knowledge “ and “ knowledge is power “! the citizenry should ensure that without digitalization 2027 elections cannot be held and if held the supreme court should rise to the occasion and declare them null and void! one time i had an american professor of finance teaching us and openly he admitted that sometimes a student might ask a question which he doesn’t have an answer! just like the senator i felt the judgement the supreme court made in 2020 elections was ‘ uninformed and unintelligent and unqualified’! the judges should not be shy to be constantly revising their notes and sometimes seek for technical opinions from the right sources before making decisions! we cannot have monopoly of knowledge even if we are at the supreme courts! at the same time time, is it so difficult for IEBC and the supreme judges to have a sabbatical in this India and brazil if we really want to to solve this election mess? or we are comfortable giving pain killers and bandaging a wound instead of treating once and for all! america and britain and EU please help us!
The man is so passionate about his country. Sad thing is he could never ascend to power. Kenya does not lack good leaders. It's us the citizens who lack the political will and moral conviction to elevate them to positions of power that enable them to make changes that could transform this country.
This talk has clearly assisted in clearly showing the government is a combination of 3 arms, and two parts have been considered for too long , thus having the judiciary working for us humble wananchi has shown also if the remaining arms (Executive and Legislature) worked for us under the constitution we would feel the progress we so much are due.
We need more Omtatas in Kenya because who won’t feel proud if the measures of Chapters 7 and 12 of our Constitution were to be implemented as well as fulfilled?
I wish Ruto can try to be avoiding arbitrary public pronouncements that ends up haunting him, then he tries to retract the same when backslashes happen. Threats, intimidation and bulldozing doesn't work in a democratic sovereign country. If he leaves the three arms of state operate freely, he will finally be the winner. He should avoid issuing ultimatums to the Judiciary that seem to tell Koome that "I promised to support you, but you too MUST always rule my way, if not I will tame you through allocations". Some people may look at it from that angle, unfortunately. Let parliament, Judiciary and Executive work in sync but independently without coercion.
ruto dude of nareeee !!! man of empty actions, ruto ni wale wasee uchora msitari saa ya vita lakini ukiangalia kando kidogo anarudi nyuma kumbe anagojea back up and incase they're good at running if anything goes above expectations that is man ruto
This sytem will also help us in passing of some of this laws a bill is put out there and kenyans vote for it in a day whether they agree or not. Power to the pple . If we go fully digital there ere many potential tht we be unlocked. Like a vote of no confidence 2 years in government.
and protected because most times these ppl endure alot and pay a dear price,like omtata said „somebody rearranged my dental formula“ it’s not easy going against the establishment.
Okiya Omtata could be the only upright politician in the current parliament. He means well for the country and is not selfish and mean like Kimani Ichungwa and Ndindi Nyoro.
May God protect Omtata to the next elections and allow his great constitutional fights to gain breakthrough..I had sworn not to patispate in another Kenya elections, but Omtata is giving me hope and confidence to change my attitude.
Hapa I agree with Omtata 10 Trillion % we need the elections to be fully digitized . In that no need to cue 10hrs waiting to vote and help with elections malpractices . kama wengine wamefanya its possible. -Shida our leaders hawawezi taka we ease things and save.
I concur with umtata, digital election the better option, after voting from polling station it goes direct, digitally to national tallying center, and then results appear directly on the sreen
Institution's like ICPAK vote digitally on an annual basis to elect their officials. Results can be tracked online till completion. You could be right senator. Thanks for the dialogue.
If we had a political culture where the power brokers were truly willing to let the popular will decide who gets to hold these offices, we would probably already have a digital elections system.
The devil is in the details. Better to just have paper ballots, counted at the polling station to minimize chances of manipulation of tallies. Digital elections sounds fancy but is the nightmare you never want to face.
Okiya is a very well informed Kenyan, he means well for the country, 2024 is the year of "taking small bites and chew them finely to liberate our country" Chapter 7 and 12 is where the solution sleeps.
Sad to be talking about elections at this tough times our people are going through, it speaks so much about our focus as leaders is all about getting that office. Okiya keep fighting and never fold for impunity to rule🫡
The best technology to achieve this will be a blockchain-based voting system. A blockchain-based voting system is like a digital, tamper-proof ballot box.

There is no question. Okiya Omtata is well read and never stops studying the constitution and comparing it with other countries. Kudos
I'm getting the impression that he is getting better than a number of practising lawyers. Way better than the likes of Murkomen who claims to have a Master's Degree in Law.
Sv😅
Is it true he never studied law...seems to have a mastery in law
This guy is genius, i would not hesitate to give him my vote, if he goes for president seat
the kind of thinking we need in this country. People from Busia have one awesome trophy
All Kenyans should give its flowers to this gentleman while he is still alive 🎉🎉
He is very eloquent and well educated
Nonsense.

This Omutata is a genius , am joining you soon once I come back to Kenya for that fight for election human manipulation. - Watching from Accra Ghana.

He's a very smart man well versed in the constitution... unlike the ignorant egotistical leaders in the kitchen cabinet ruining our country.
Hon Omtata is a go getter and fearless man , whom is the people's representative and constitutional expert
I hope we all can see the direction Kenya should go. Attorney General........or President.....Kenyans have eyes but how many Kenyans can see?
This guy is smart
I totally support his idea

Brilliant mind! He should have an honorary dr of laws degree!
Put your jokes aside

Why can't the voters register be digital, then all registered voters vote via an SMS only, if mpesa works, even working can work
Now i understand why the server will never be opened.

Sad to be talking about elections at this tough times our people are going through, it speaks so much about our focus as leaders is all about getting that office. Okiya keep fighting and never fold for impunity to rule🫡
Elections are the basis of our rogue governance and must be urgently fixed
We are going thru the tough times cuz of election
You're thick in head. We've to talk about elections coz there's a big problem which needs solutions.
Where our problems begin n end until we change.
