"content": "Thank you, very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support this Report. Let me start by commending the team that sat together. Indeed, the fact that they were able to sit together and come up with some conclusion, is a great achievement in itself. In a country where people are used to facing, talking, fighting each other and disagreeing just for the sake of disagreeing, it is a great achievement that they have come with a bit of recommendation that will give us a platform upon which we can build a way forward. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not lost to us that there are quite a number of things that we did when we passed the Constitution of 2010. I belong to those who believed that we could have changed the Constitution and then amalgamated it. I remember, in our desperation to have a new Constitution, there was one camp that said, “tupitishe,tubadilishe baadaye” and there are those who said, “tubadilishe alafu tupitishe” . This Report seeks to redress the issues that were omitted. I find it very bold that despite the differences that we have in the political arena, people can come up with suggestions on how we can move this country forward."
