    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, aware that voter registration is a crucial exercise in the electioneering process, further aware that for one to register as a voter he requires a National Identification Card; and concerned that thousands of youth do not have identity cards due to the long and tedious process involved in the processing of those cards and further compounded by the centralisation of the process; noting that once a person applies for identification card it is issued with serialised waiting card; further aware that the serial number on the waiting card appears in the identity card; mindful of the fact that many people, especially the youth have applied and been issued with serialised waiting cards; concerned that the ongoing voter registration exercise which commenced on 15th February 2016 is likely to come to a close in a month’s time and in effect those youth with serialised waiting cards would not have received their identity cards, this House resolves that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) be authorised to allow all the people who have successfully been vetted and issued with serialised waiting cards to register as voters in the ongoing and future voter registration exercises. Thank you."
