"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, what we want is to make sure that people who have aspired to high offices and their political parties perform very well, and they have enough members in the House. They could very well be majority leaders or even minority leaders in the House. They can be nominated so that they can properly participate in the contribution in national building. More important also, you can have some of the politicians, who have been in this business for the last 15, 20 or 30 years. They may not wish to actually contest for their local seats. That is because all their time now is being taken running around for a national seat. Now that we have expressly forbidden them from contesting at their constituency or at the county level, then it is important that those people be given an outright capacity to be nominated by their political parties. Indeed, any person who is a senate majority leader, senate minority leader, house majority leader, a minority leader of the House or a majority leader of the House is a national leader."
