    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the Motion and congratulate the Committee for a job well done. The biggest challenge in Africa now is elections. Every election in this continent raises eyebrows all over the world. It is for this reason that this Commission must be seen to be transparent. It is not only about the Commissioners, but we must conduct ourselves properly. The whole country must conduct itself in a manner that is likely to bring justice and harmony. So, let us not transfer the whole responsibility to the Commissioners, but we must take up this responsibility. I must say that these gentlemen and ladies are self made. If you look at their CVs and where they come from in this country, they are self-made individuals. They should remain the same through and through. In 2006, I had a discussion with one of the Members because of the manner in which the last Commission was appointed and I said: “We are joking with fire”. Let us not joke with fire because we might get burnt in the fire."
