    "content": "I support this Bill, but with amendments. We want to have an election process where everybody is given a platform to exercise their democratic right. It is also important to note that during party nominations, some people hold political parties to ransom. It is an open secret. For some political parties to appoint you as their flag bearer, you must be connected to some people. I say that with a lot of confidence because I was once a member of a political party which happens to be the second largest in the country, namely, the ODM. I left the party when I realised that it was run like a cult. For people to go through such nominations, we have to streamline the process of party nomination and the compilation of party lists, so that by the time we go to the ballot, we know we have the people who deserve to be voted for and not those who have been put there by the demigods in the name of party leaders."
