"content": "Hon. Speaker, I second. It is like we are going in circles. I am saying so because the two Houses approved a report in the affirmative on the number of nominees to be presented by each political party. What the committee of Hon. Katoo and Sen. Murkomen and Sen. Mutula Junior from the other side and Hon. Wamunyinyi is telling us is that they want to put more emphasis on that report. I am told the Senate has adopted the Report, and so, we have no choice. Now they are very specific on Rule 6 and say that we must bring three times the number of names. That is the only way out. In the event it passes and we bring the required numbers, the door will be opened for a special sitting where we can do the elections. In the event the two Houses do not agree, we will go back to another state of quagmire. It is now late in the night. There is a difference between electing another member to another assembly and electing yourself back. What is more important to me from tomorrow, as the Member for Garissa Township, is how to get my seat back. So, we have enough time and there is no crisis. South Sudan is in court. When its Parliament passed certain names, President Salva Kiir brought a different set of names. So, somebody is in court. It is only about a month. If the two Houses agree - the presiding officer our Clerk is here - we will direct and see if we can. I beg to support the recommendation of the Committee."
