    "content": "primaries. Some have decided not to go the independent way and some are not assured of coming back. It is very dangerous. We must have a mechanism of how to control the spending, particularly in such a case like that of Hon. Mwadeghu, who is going to be the governor. Whatever they are going to inherit must be at the level of objectivity. Otherwise, you will get a rogue governor who will be spending without following due process. This is something which is very dangerous because they are going to inherit pending Bills. Some of them might not have been approved by Parliament. This is particularly the time that this House should look at measures and the mechanisms on how we are going to protect the money belonging to the common mwananchi . When you look at the list of independent candidates, particularly from Jubilee side, the number is very high. We are getting worried on how we are going to move when it comes to this issue. I also want to request hon. Members that, as we go out there to campaign, let us do it peacefully. We do not have any other country. This is the only country. We call upon the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to be very objective and fair in whatever they do to ensure that elections are free and fair and, if possible, the announcement of the results of the President at the constituency level must not be altered as was said by the High Court. I thank you and request hon. Members to support this Bill."
