    "content": "Recently, we saw that the Supreme Court is not beyond reproach. Most of these amendments were done after the Supreme Court had given its ruling on the opinion that was sought by the NLC. We now even have a member of the Supreme Court whose reputation is being queried and is facing a tribunal. We cannot make laws based on what the Supreme Court said. They are not beyond reproach. As legislators, we should read what is in the Constitution and see if it has been reflected in this Bill. I want to tell the Chairman that if he wants us to support this Bill, then he should call all the stakeholders to make sure that we do not dent our Constitution by passing these omnibus laws. In essence, we could be stabbing ourselves in the back and there might be no time to undo that. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I oppose."
