    "content": "Members will not have served their period of five years. Therefore, it is necessary that we carry out the amendment, especially as the Member of Wundanyi and the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party have said. If the amendment is specifically for this Parliament, then it is okay. We should look into the future and amend the Constitution accordingly, so that the period that is set out in the Constitution of five years, and the dates are set out properly, so that we do not have to do piecemeal amendments every now and then. At the time we were passing the Constitution, people said that some parts of the Constitution were okay while others were to be amended as we went along. So, this is part of the Constitution that we need to amend, so that we align everything in accordance with what we want the Constitution to achieve. With those few remarks, I support the amendment."
