    "content": "Any leader in this House or outside there who is not in support of this Motion and the establishment of a new IEBC is an enemy of our republic and the people of Kenya. That person does not wish our country well. I dare say that any person in the Judiciary who imagines that they will stop us from having an IEBC will not be acting in the best interests of the republic and the people of Kenya. Therefore, I take this opportunity to plead with our judges and the Judiciary to take judicial notice of the circumstances that we are in as a country. Several elections are pending and electoral boundary delimitation needs to be done ahead of the elections. I would also like to remind Members that the Kriegler Commission recommended that we should have a commission ready at least two years before every election. We are slightly above that two-year threshold. It is time we had a commission in place so that they can conduct electoral boundary delimitation and register new voters if they need to. They should remove deceased voters from the register of voters and clean it up in good time so that when we defeat these hate-mongers in the next elections, they will have no excuse."
