    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I oppose the amendment as proposed by Mr. Ochilo-Ayacko by drawing the attention of the House to Articles 5 and 7 of the Draft Rules. Article 5(1) says as follows:- \"In order to be validly nominated as a candidate for an election, a person shall be nominated by a parliamentary party, through its parliamentary group meeting, in the form set out in the Schedule\". Article 7 says as follows:- \"The House Business Committee shall consider the nominees of the parties forwarded to it under Rule 6 and shall ensure that the requirements of Article 50 of the Treaty are fulfilled\". Mr. Speaker, Sir, by removing part (3) of Article 8, we will be introducing mischief in the nomination of the candidates as presented to the House by the parties. It is totally uncalled for. Thank you."
