    "content": "So, we are appealing and pleading with the MCAs that they should use the powers that have been conferred to them under this Bill. The good thing is that this Bill also provides for discipline for those who misuse these privileges. It also protects them from being sued unnecessarily by fictitious litigants while they are contributing in the House. So, we are providing an environment where MCAs can express themselves freely. As you rightly spoke to my good friend from Igambang’ombe, Members can express themselves in the manner in which they deem fit without being penalised. So, we hope that MCAs will use this to ensure that democracy is developed in this country. I request the Leader of the Majority Party to second."
