"content": "It means that whereas the rest of the country heard him loud and clear, the National Treasury blocked their ears. They are the only ones who did not hear. That is what it means. Up to now, they have not done anything to try and actualise or make it possible for the 290 constituencies to heed that appeal from the President. Hon. Wanga and Hon. Wamunyinyi schedule a meeting. Whatever the deliberations, if need be, through the leaders, let us know whether we will have a Special Sitting. There is no point of going for recess when everybody expects you to assist to ameliorate the situation on the ground with regard to social distancing. Everybody will be knocking your homes. That is what it means. The people you represent will camp in your homes. So, you are the ones who will be in greater risk. You will not actualise social distancing. Rather than discuss the issue, let the two Committees meet with the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury by Wednesday and then they will give us a report. I will be here. Let the leaders and I get the information. We must get a report which will be given here in the plenary in a Special Sitting. That is the only way. Let us not discuss that issue further."
