    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have listened to the contributions by my colleagues and I failed to understand what we can do to fight ethnicity and corruption. But I think if the people we appoint to this Commission are people of integrity, we can do better. We need to change the wording of the oathing, because it has been standard and people have taken it for granted. I do not know what should happen. I heard an hon. Member say that people should be given life sentence, but, to me, that is not a solution. This Parliament should make a deliberate effort to fight this vice and make sure that what we talk in this Parliament must be what we talk outside. We must not go and incite people. I see some people talking here very well, however, when they go to public places, they talk differently. Some people want to appear to be heroes to their communities. If we want to be heroes, we must be national heroes. We are elected here as national leaders. We leave backgrounds wherever we came from and come here as national leaders. We must support this Bill, but we must discuss it and make amendments."
