"content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. First is to thank you for the direction you have given in line with Article 125 of the Constitution. To add to that, the work of committees has heavily been hindered by Cabinet Secretaries. Article 152(5)(c) of the Constitution says: “The President shall dismiss a Cabinet Secretary if required to do so by a resolution adopted under Clauses (6) to (10). Clause 6 states: “A member of the National Assembly, supported by at least one-quarter of all the Members of the Assembly, may propose a motion requiring the President to dismiss a Cabinet Secretary”. This is the time for us to crack the whip. I was just seeking your guidance as you give that direction so that the House can read that clause for the way forward. Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir."
