"content": "Therefore, Hon. Members, as I did guide, the Memorandum must be supported at every stage and/or opposed by not less than two-thirds of the membership of the House. Therefore, in the event that when you go into Committee you do not raise two-thirds, essentially, the Bill would have been lost. And since it had only one clause, thereafter, I will communicate the decision of the House to the Attorney-General (AG). There is already a law in place. It was seeking to amend that particular law. So, the law still exists with all the other provisions. What will be left is for me to communicate the decision of the House to the Attorney-General (AG). However, should you have the 233 of you voting to defeat the President’s Memorandum, then, of course, we will present the Bill to the President with his veto having been overridden by not less than 233 of you. However, obviously and in fairness, looking at the Chamber, I think it will be a tall order. Therefore, the House is accordingly guided that when you get to Committee of the whole House... The Member for Emuhaya says that the House is going to mobilise yourselves into droves. Please, go ahead. I have no hesitation. That is for the information of the House. Next Order!"
