"content": "responsibility that we give room to other ideas and listen to other voices that are coming up with very proper suggestions that can be incorporated in this amendment and ensure that, at the end of the day, come 2022, we have space between now and that time and we can definitely come up with proper suggestions that will build this nation. The other thing that we need to look into is this: It is important that the Committee has done its bit. They have brought it to the Floor of the House. Let them also be open. The way we are making suggestions, it does not mean that we have not understood. We know what we are talking about. All these voices are raising concerns because some of us probably may have just seen it on the screens. But some of us have witnessed it happen even under our feet. So, we have a sole responsibility as a House to ensure that what we are passing in this House has a lasting solution even to generations to come. One thing we need to ask ourselves is this: What could have happened if all commissioners that time, when the President was waiting for the results, resigned? That would be crisis. That is why I want to stand here and congratulate the three men who have held on to ensure that this country moves on. Sometimes, we see the opposite and the negative side of a person. But those men have kept this country going. So, for us to ensure that we appreciate what they are doing, let us analyse the challenges and the existing gaps in the Commission so that we can come up with something that will secure the destiny and respect for the country. With those few remarks, I oppose."
