    "content": "I do not want to add more than I have already said. The only request I will make other than thanking colleagues for making time during this difficult moments to come and do this important national duty---. I want to request that we do not politicise this matter any further. I request we make sure that this time our country is compliant with the regional law, so that we avoid protracted litigation as we have had in the previous election. I pray that we comply with the judgement, pass this report, have further nominees, have an election and by 4th June, 2017 we will have a new Parliament in Arusha where our country will be fully represented, noting the importance of this Legislative Assembly. It is very critical for our region and for Kenya. As a leader, in this region, Kenya should not be the one always to be whipped into compliance with the treaty. I want to stop there and plead that we do not politicise this matter any further. I also plead with our colleagues on the minority sat to just comply and we move on. The Jubilee Party has already submitted enough names. We submitted 15 names and whichever are chosen will be people from this country. Whoever will not be chosen will be chosen in another context. So, let us not colour this with small interests, if I may say so, with the greatest respect to our colleagues in the Opposition. I request the Senator for Wajir County who is the Deputy Senate Minority Leader to second this Motion. I beg to move."
