"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Rarely do you see the hon. Member for Gwassi and the hon. Member for Budalang’i disagreeing but is it in order for the hon. Member for Budalang’i who is a lawyer of repute and I cannot claim to be having even a half of the knowledge in law as he does, and he also cannot claim the same in finance--- Is it in order for the hon. Member to fail to appreciate the transitional clause which has suspended the provisions of Cap.8 but has extended Section 48 to Section 58 of the former Constitution? The provision that I have referred to is found under Section 50. This therefore, means that Section 50 of the old Constitution applies which is verbatim the same way I read it. So, based on that, if Mr. Namwamba was saying that it is not clear, I would rather put it to him that it is very clear that Section 50 of the old Constitution is retained and with the same provisions that I have read. It is only that I did not carry the old Constitution because I did not see the need of carrying it. I could quote it from my head. So, if that is the reasoning of Mr. Namwamba, is it in order for the lawyer to mislead non-lawyers like John Mbadi by insisting that this is not clear? Again in terms of elections, the Constitution has not talked about elections."
