"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I really commend Kenyans, especially in Malindi and Kericho, for being patient despite all the drama that we witnessed. I would like to remind the CORD side that it was a plus for the Jubilee Coalition in the Malindi by-elections compared to the 2013 elections. However, the time has come when we all need to keep an eye on the IEBC because of the complaints that we are getting. I am a victim of the IEBC misdeeds. It took me about six months to come to the Senate because my position had been given to another person after the 2013 General Election. This organisation is led by human beings and it should be held accountable to the people. I do not have any doubt with what happened in Kericho. I think this is the right time to make Kenyans feel that they can count on them on upcoming elections. These complaints are too much, starting from myself because they wasted a lot of time after the general election. It is true that IEBC is not an institution to rely on."
