    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Indeed, I have waited to contribute to this amazing Bill. The constitutional debate and the amendments to the IEBC Act cannot come up at a better time than now, when everybody is busy preparing for many other national issues that concern elections, referendum, the national census and other processes that come after such kind of national issues are tackled. I am more concerned about what will happen after census. I am aware that we are going to have census in this country. We may have a situation where we need to review constituency boundaries. For that matter, we need a sober and well constituted IEBC that is going to do what the citizens of this country expect. More specifically, I speak for my County of Kiambu where we have constituencies that have many voters who feel that they need to be taken care of by making sure that the boundaries are reconsidered. We cannot trust people to reconsider our boundaries if they are not people of great integrity and people who have been through this national House. For that, I do support this Bill. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
