    "content": " After the chaos, now that the House can listen to me, I want to go on record again because I have a further amendment. For the first time in the history of our country, we see serious contradictions in the running of political parties. All parties, including the one I proscribe to, submitted nomination rules and procedures to the IEBC. The IEBC, after due diligence, has given those parties certificates of powers to conduct free and fair party nominations. This evening, this House is creating another entity called the Registrar of Political Parties, who will certify a register; who can feel a member who even feels aggrieved in his party not to move to another party or even not to be an independent candidate. I really ask the House to look at this amendment for posterity. Let us not look at this amendment and subject ourselves to another dictatorship. Multi-party democracy was about giving members and parties free and fair nominations. The nominations are key, particularly in certain regions for certain parties. I might not be a victim, but those of you who come from regions where party dominance is key, tonight you might be sending yourselves home in the next elections. I rest my case."
