"content": " Thank you Hon. Speaker for defending me. Hon. K.J forgot that I am a student of literature. We are running away from the preserve of party leaders to form committees of selecting very serious officers or commissioners. In the last Parliament which I had a privilege of serving in, we saw the attempt to break the Constitution as party leaders were forcing fellow Members to select people the way they wanted. For the first time in the history of this country, Parliament is taking its responsibility of legislating and overseeing the functions of every office in this country. I was referring to it as a house of comedy because we saw people acting like comedians. They were not acting like they were in a serious office. So, I am in order to refer to them as comedians. Therefore, I support that we get a team of serious people from all political parties to select serious people who are not going to act like comedians at the IEBC. Thank you."
