    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Before I second this Motion I have one or two comments to make, having been a ranking Member of CPAIC. During this period, it has been challenging because colleagues were either participating in nominations or had begun their campaigns. Some had started looking elsewhere or running for governorship and elective seats in the country. To get the numbers that CPAIC needs for meetings was difficult. I thank a number of governors who found it wise to appear before our Committee and were able to clarify and ensure that the audit queries that were raised by the Auditor- General were given satisfactory answers. There are a number of governors who decided otherwise in their own volition not to appear and summonses were issued as per the law, the Powers and Privileges Act. A number of them were summoned and most of them did not want to appear. Madam Temporary Speaker, unfortunately, some of the governors who did not appear before the Committee are running for Senate. I would be interested to see how thy will be behaving if they make it to the Senate from August. A number of them refused to appear before our Committee, for example, from North Eastern and Coast region. It will be interesting to see how they will behave once they are in this Chamber."
