    "content": "Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir. Pursuant to Standing Order 44 (2) (c ), I wish to request a Statement from the Leader of Majority Party regarding plans by some NGOs to stage mass civil disobedience in the country. Hon. Speaker, there are a number of NGOs which are receiving funding from foreign organizations and embassies to organize civil society organizations across the country to take position on the ongoing ICC cases facing His Excellency the President, his Deputy and radio journalist, Joshua Sang. Hon. Speaker, in his Statement, the Leader of Majority Party should inquire and report on, one; whether the said NGOs are being organized to cause nationwide civil disobedience in the event that the President attends or fails to attend the ICC trails; two, whether the funding from foreign organizations, embassies and individuals will be used to sustain mass protest that will culminate into claims of power vacuum in the event that the President and his Deputy are on trial at the same time; three, whether these foreign institutions intend to facilitate the planned capacity building and technical support aimed at fomenting violence in this country; four, what the identities of these foreign bodies are and who are funding these civil societies; five, who are the local recipients of the funding and six, what measures the Government is taking to avert the planned demonstrations and disruption of peace? Finally, when will the Government introduce a Bill in the House to regulate NGO funding and their activities in the country? Thank you.
