"content": "Hon. Speaker, we are asking our colleagues to do things which might even be illegal. They may have been mistakes. Why do we not accept that the time has come for us to review the so-called “20 per cent” of the Constitution that we are agreed is not right? If we adopt a piecemeal way of doing things we will not be addressing the real issues. The reason as to why we think we need this amendment is the apparent differences between the Chairperson of the National Police Service Commission (NPSC) and the IG. We have to accept it. Why do we not look at this thing holistically, so that we can address the issue once and for all, knowing that at the end of the day, when we address insecurity in the country, it will be good for all of us. When there is insecurity in the country, no one is immune to it. With those remarks, I beg to oppose the amendments as proposed."
