    "content": "Secondly, under Article 9(3) of the Constitution, national and public holidays are to be prescribed. We as a House passed the Public Holidays Act as amended in 2012. It gives the Minister power to prescribe additional public holidays. The Petitioner does not need to come to us, but go to the Minister and persuade the Minister that alongside 11th October, let them add those other days. Thirdly, in any event, we do not just have one holiday for praying. Every week, we have at least two days. We Catholics have Sunday. The SDAs have Saturday. Our Muslim brothers and sisters do not have any day, but they pray on Friday. Why do you need a public holiday to pray? You can pray every day and anywhere. In any event, we should now reduce these days and not increase them. I find no merit in it. Thank you."
