    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I saw in the media today that the Court of Appeal upheld the earlier decision of the High Court that March 4th next year is the election date. So, I pose this question to hon. Members of this National Assembly: What will happen if in December or January we will not have an Inspector-General of Police in the office? How long will that Inspector-General have to solidify her command structure and be able to help us manage this period of election which we already know historically is characterized by ethnic animosity? We know that in 1992, people died. In 1993, after the elections, people died. In 1997 and 1998, again, they died. So, it is a matter of life and death for Kenyans. If we go into the process which is already suspicious because of some shenanigans and unexplained reasons, we are setting ourselves up again for a torturous and painful process. It really is not necessary. I want to plead with the House to accept this Report. Let us do things correctly."
