    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Junet is heckling. I do not know why he likes tribalism and yet he is a beneficiary of a region that does not practice tribalism as such. I support the recommendations of the Report. The hot issue of party hopping has been discussed the better part of this afternoon and yesterday. We need to look into the root cause of this problem. The problem is mismanagement of our political parties. We should address how to strengthen the structures of our political parties and ensure that institutions work. We should also finance them well to ensure that the primaries are not mismanaged. There will be no reason for party hopping if they are not mismanaged. It is important to note that party hopping is just a major issue to political leaders. People did not demonstrate because they wanted politicians to party hop or not, but they wanted the IEBC out. I am happy that through this Report, when the time comes to make these recommendations into law, if we do it well and have a new Commission in place and deal with offensive issues, we will definitely go into the next elections as a better prepared nation."
