    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for reminding me. Just to say that I support the Bill and hope the commission will now be able to do its work. For example, particularly in counties which are multi-ethnic or cosmopolitan, some people like governors are now saying: “I come from the biggest ethnic group in this county.” He goes on to tell his people: “We can rule this county forever and ever. At least 30 years and so on,” inciting other ethnic groups that are there. On the other hand, the commission is not doing anything about it. So, as we move towards elections where the temptation for politicians is to try to rely on their supporters who may happen to come from some ethnic group, trying to tell them to come out to vote for them by inciting them, they should know that they are also creating ill-feelings in the other ethnic groups. That is why the powers that we will give NCIC under this Bill will assist this country. Let me also talk on the issue of legislation. As my Vice Chairperson, Sen. Sang, stated, there are so many legislations which we have passed, but are still lying before the National Assembly."
