"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I seek guidance from the Chair on matters of law and our Standing Orders. Standing Order No.65 gives us guidance on how the Governor can be removed from office by the Senate but it is silent on how the Deputy Governor can be removed from office. Mr. Speaker, Sir, Article 180 of the Constitution also has the same deficiency; it describes how to remove a Governor but it does not give guidance on how to remove a Deputy Governor, unlike the rest of the Chapter on the Executive which shows exactly how to remove the President and the Deputy President from office. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I seek guidance on the following; could the Act be unconstitutional because it never followed or it introduced issues that were not in the Constitution on matters of removal of the Deputy Governor? Could you, then, invoke Standing Order No.1 to give guidance on how to remove a Deputy Governor in our Standing Orders? Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
