"content": "This proves two things, namely one, my focus is elections and two, I am not proposing the amendment of any Article in force in this country today. I am proposing amendments to Articles that all of us Kenyans, whether you voted Yes or No support because voting No, technically in democracy, you support Yes if it wins. I am trying to say to the country that we suspended these Articles ourselves and the purpose of this suspension is deliberate. It is deliberate because in suspending those Articles, we gave ourselves as a country, an opportunity to prepare for the first elections under the Constitution, so that the purpose is clear. It is to enable the country to prepare for the first elections. These proposed amendments are essential and are informed by the desire to prepare for quality, transparent and credible first elections that Kenyans so badly desire."
