    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I stand to also support the Bill. I thank both the President and the soon-to-be President of Africa, the Right Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, for being magnanimous enough to rally their troops and leaders who were part of the NADCO team. The team took into consideration and conducted public participation. They considered the people of Kenya. I also thank the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for being able to extract this Bill and the others that are soon to come to the House. I am very thankful for this because when we have amendments to Bills that are meant to have perpetuity, it means we will leave solutions that will not only help this Parliament but also future parliaments and the people of Kenya at large. These are solutions that will be engraved in law and, therefore, very helpful to the people of Kenya. The other reason I am thankful is because in 2027, I am one of the people who wants to run for a political seat. When we have laws in place that streamline IEBC, it gives hope to myself and a lot of us who want to run for political seats, because then we know that things are going to be better than they have been in the past."
