Okiya Omtatah","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"Madam Temporary Speaker, as somebody who believes in human rights, I do not think it is fair for us to keep a witness standing for so many hours. You have seen even proceedings in the United States Senate, witnesses are cross- examined sitting. I have seen this lady trying to lie on the rostrum. I do not know if it is fair to keep somebody standing for three hours and then it is under cross-examination for an hour or two hours. It will not be good for the health of that person."}
