    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have been here for the last two days listening to the submissions from both parties. I would not like to delve deep into the issues of the case. I would like to derive some lessons from the impeachment process. There is need for us to review the impeachment process of governors. I have been following this process keenly, just on two issues. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the first issue is that the governor is elected on a joint ticket with his deputy, but when he is impeached, he is impeached alone. We will be making proposals to the Constitution that when you impeach a governor, since he was elected on single ticket with his deputy, then both are deemed to be impeached. I speak this because we have deputy governors who have started plotting the downfall of their governors. They have realized that the only shortcut to them ascending to governorship is by impeaching their governors. It is important that we look into this matter more deeply. Mr. Speaker, Sir, secondly, as I was following this debate, I enjoyed the time the learned friends were making deliberations and making sure that everything is legally right. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
