    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope that this Bill and the subsequent amendments that will be passed will enable us sort out some of these things so that, for once, we can have political parties that are issue and ideology-driven. If you want to test what we have, ask yourself the last time you saw the manifesto of any political party and yet we are just about to go to an election. I see helicopters hopping in the air every weekend but I have not heard anybody say what their manifesto says or what their stand is on farming, education, girl child and issues that are supposed to be articulated not by an individual but by a political party. We should hear people say:- “As a party, this is what we stand for and if you give us votes, this is what we are going to deliver and this is how we are going to achieve the aspirations in Vision 2030.” I am yet to see that. Perhaps, when I bring my manifesto one of these days, it might address some of those things because I feel there is a big gap which we need to fill."
