    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President said how proud he is that he was able to assent to certain Bills that this House actually approved. Particularly, he spoke about the Alcoholic Drinks Bill, which is an important Bill. But the Indemnity Bill, which this House, in its own wisdom more than one-and-a-half years, decided that it was a good law to remove from our statutes has been refused. I am glad that the Chair itself had an opportunity to contribute on this matter. We are now talking about post-election violence, but the mother and trouble of impunity started way back in the 1960s. We wanted this Bill to be removed from our statutes, so that, in fact, we can celebrate. Right now, we have a new Constitution and there are certain archaic laws, including this one, but the President just refuses, I think on wrong advice by none other than the Attorney- General--- We are happy that the Attorney-General is going. He should go so that we can get a more vibrant, active and sensitive Attorney-General that this country deserves."
