  • 17 Jul 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the Senate Majority Leader in order to use his time for replying to a Bill to go into politics that he should not be engaging in by the virtue of his leadership position? What does lifestyle audit have to do with some of the things he is supposed to be replying to? Of course, we all support lifestyle audit, but using his opportunity and time for replying to a Bill to go into politics is not in order. view
  • 17 Jul 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Senate Majority Leader is misusing his powers and the time he has to reply to the Bill by engaging in politics of maligning others. I think it would be in order for him to keep to the subject matter of replying to the Bill. view
  • 17 Jul 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to support the Bill.

All Senators have alluded to and very passionately talked about the issue of protection of county governments. This Bill takes away from the county governments. Why do I say this?
