• 13 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Yes, indeed, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker, I want to commend some of my colleagues who have commented on this particular issue.

• 1 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before I reply, I want to repeat a pronouncement that was made by Hon. Speaker yesterday when we were debating this particular Motion.

• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: have been developing the land. There are also two prime markets on the land. Therefore, it will be very hard to demolish these developments and allocate the land to somebody else. The Committee is of the view that the AFC negotiates with the squatters and if possible, charge them an amount that is equivalent to the principal amount that was borrowed by Plum Company, so that the squatters and the AFC do not lose and there is no security problem in the process. The insistence of getting the principal amount together with interest is futile. They cannot get that because ... view
