"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, looking at the directions that you have given, I agree with the Senate Majority Leader that this matter is very unique. It is uncharted territory because we are so used to impeachment of governors as we have done before. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I need your guidance and clarity on the process. Under Standing Orders No.78 of the Senate Standing Orders on the procedure for removal from State office, which includes the removal of the President or Deputy President, I want to invite and request you to read--- In the Second Schedule of our Standing Orders, Part 1; rules of procedure when considering the proposed removal in Plenary. Rule No. 12 states that- “Subject to these Rules, the hearing of the evidence, once it commences shall proceed and continue on until the Senate concludes the hearing of the matter”. This extrapolates itself from Articles 145 and 150 on the removal of either the President or the Deputy President. This is a matter of national interest and it will involve the process of evidence producing and many other procedures. Considering the immense work, would it be in order to request that as per your direction you add an extra day? They say that justice should not only be seen, but seen to be done."
