    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Motion. I thank His Excellency the President for sharing the four issues that he has presented in his memorandum. The issues are very important. The fact that they have been debated for long, that is, since the previous years until now and they are still relevant makes them quite important. There are four issues that have been shared in the President’s Memorandum – the two-thirds gender principle, the creation of the Office of the Leader of Official Opposition, inclusion of various decentralized funds in the Constitution, the NG-CDF, NGAAF and the proposed Senate Oversight Fund; and also the re-structuring of parliamentary oversight to allow Cabinet Secretaries to appear before the House. Hon. Temporary Speaker, those four issues are timely and most welcome. I thank the Hon. Speaker for referring them to the relevant Committees. It is my hope that those relevant Committees, including the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, the Joint Parliamentary Ad Hoc Committee, and the Procedure and House Rules Committee, will expedite the processes that will help us to move these four issues forward."
