    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am well informed and for sure, the Senate Majority Leader is right. I was misguided by the headline that was talking about the audit of the 2022, Presidential Election. However, when you go to the recommendation, it is for sure talking about 2022 electoral process. Therefore, that means I do have an opportunity whenever that panel is formed, to go before it and find out what happened and who were behind my wars at that particular time. Consequently, for us to know where we are going, we must understand where we are coming from. We have to look at the back of the side mirror. We have to look back, so that we can have a very democratic country. I agree with this Report on the issue of the days that the Supreme Court should take to listen or to hear the Presidential Election Petition. The 14 days were not enough. The report proposes 21 days. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I believe that is a good moment to kill the tension that is always there in this country and of course, give parties enough time to do their investigation, so that we do not go through what we went through in the previous presidential election petition, whereby we were treated with drama of Carmago and all the other issues where people just downloaded images without due diligence. On paragraph 559, that is page 179 of the report, it is talking about impeachment of governors. If I can read that page 179, their recommendation is a one liner. They say, the Committee recommends that Parliament shall fast track the enactment of a legislation, to give a comprehensive guide to the impeachment process. Mr. Speaker, Sir, of course, this is the way and that is why I do not understand why other people were agitated yesterday when this Report just gives you direction of what you need to do from here. Be it on gender, it is telling you about the steps that you need to take from here. Additionally, when it comes to impeachment, it tells the House what we need to do."
