"content": "Therefore, I want to plead with the Chair - and this is very last – that, from your Chair, at least, tell the media that we are here and our mandate is to legislate. When we legislate, the media cannot go out there to misrepresent the facts. One local daily said: “MPs pass Bill to legalize Polygamy.” Such Bill has never been to this House. Such an amendment has never been brought here. No amendment has been brought here. For the media to keep tarnishing the name of this House is something that we must talk about because we are here by right. We are here not to do favours or to legislate wrongly. We want to defend our rights through the right channel. Thank you"
