So, once impeachment proceedings start, they must move without any break. In any case, it is the responsibility of anybody who undertakes an impeachment process to first gather their evidence properly and have their case tight, so that when they walk into the National Assembly--- If you are a Member of Parliament (MPs) probably acting by yourself or acting at the behest and on behalf of citizens who may have gathered evidence of violation of the Constitution, then you bring that evidence and you are given an opportunity to move without a break to finish this matter. Madam Temporary Speaker, what may be something to guard against is the continued acting of the Judiciary in virtually shooting down anything and everything coming from Parliament to the extent that an impeachment grounded on law and fact sometimes may end up in court. We all live in this country and some of our judges are not quite straight; they are bent, so to speak. When a matter goes before a bent judge, you are likely to get a bent outcome. In comparable jurisdictions, the judiciary acts independently, but it does not act independent of the society.
