Lessons from DP Gachagua's swearing-in gaffe

One talking point of the recent inauguration ceremony of the president and his deputy was the stumble by the registrar and deputy president-elect during the oath. Most comments after the ceremony involved social media pundits poking fun at the incident and trivialising it for comic relief.

It is the law that the Assumption of the Office of President Committee (AOPC) members conduct a post-mortem after the event to analyse various aspects. The Assumption of the Office of President Act that sets up the AOPC anticipates such a Report under Section 19.

The report helps avert future hitches by proposing changes to the preparation and programming of the inauguration or proposing legislative changes that improve the ceremony - an important ceremony that marks the end of the election process.
