Mbita Member of Parliament, Millie Odhiambo, speaking on the JKL show Wednesday night also rejected the move by SRC to slash their salaries. Why was I, as Millie Odhiambo, spending between Sh500,000 and 1 million on campaigns a day? I receive my salary, pay a mortgage of Sh300,000 and the rest goes to my constituents. Kenyans and some Members of Parliament felt that the planned move by the legislators was greed exposed even before they are sworn into office. SRC scrapped legislators car grant of Sh5 million and instead proposed a Sh7 million car loan in addition to the Sh20 million mortgage.
