    "content": " Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I call upon my colleagues to respect our country, avoid these acts of economic sabotage and any acts of creating artificial political crisis. Let us accept that the same way - I am sending senior counsel Sen. Omogeni - that the same way your competitor accepted that you won and the voters that did not vote for you have accepted that you are their senator, I urge you to also accept that when your coalition leader loses an election it is not time to sabotage our economy or our country. Our country will still be there with us. There were people who were on that side like Sen.(Eng.) Hargura who are now sitting here and I will not be surprised before the end of the term when more than half of you will have joined us on this side. It is important for us not to wreck our country just for the simple reason that we have an election that is coming. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those remarks, I beg to move this Motion and ask this honorable House to vote in support and that we move with speed to ensure that the amendments are taken care of and that our country can have an election on October 26th2017 that is free, fair and credible."
