    "content": "Any democratic process has majority and that is why now we are the majority. If you read carefully the majority Supreme Court Judgment, it identified some gaps. I want to thank the Deputy Majority Leader, Sen. Fatuma Dullo, for preparing a solomonic Bill that we will be debating. We must assist the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to have a proper legal framework to carry out a proper electoral process as envisaged in Article 81 of the Constitution. I want to challenge my colleagues, this is the time to stand up and be counted. Laws will always be made and cannot be stopped at any given time. We must rise up and assist the IEBC to play its role. Article 10 of the Constitution on national values and principles of governance, public participation is key. My brothers in the National Super Alliance (NASA), the only place you can make your voice heard is not in the streets through mass action and press briefings. Make sure you appear before this Committee and bring out your issues. As I finish, when King Farouk was being dethroned, Gamal Abdel Nasser told the people who wanted to kill the king that history will sentence the king to death. So, NASA people led by their principal will be sentenced to death by history because they want to bring destruction to this country. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
