    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we do not want to go where the ‘Cherera Four’ tried to do. I agree that the person who should declare the president-elect and deputy president-elect should be the chairman of IEBC. We do not want to go to the ‘Cherera Four’ debacle, which almost brought this country to instability. I agree with the wisdom that you brought that at least the IEBC chairperson should declare the president-elect and deputy president-elect. On the issue of electronically transmitting results, we are in the era of technology. Two hours is enough. If we are not careful with the current Gen Z technology, we can always know who is winning or who is not winning. I agree with the issue of electronic publishing of results. The County Returning Officers could be hijacked as they come through Kericho County, somewhere in Awasi, and they could disappear with the results. On the issue of auditing, I agree that we should audit after one year. The Justice, Legal Affairs, and Human Rights Committee that you chair should give us the outcome of presidential and national elections within one year. This is a good legislation. In conclusion, there are a number of MCAs who have been complaining that they were not given a chance. We need to rectify the issues that are present in elections. Let this country have trust in our institutions. I agree with your senior colleague who said that IEBC should even make nominations. Can I get an additional 30 seconds? Some of the people have lost their seats because of bungled nominations. Many people who have seen nominations will tell you that it is not an easy process. Where you come from---"
