The second President was, of course, the late Nelson Mandela. The third President, although he handed over power to his brother, was Fidel Castro.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support the Adjournment Motion, which is important. This is the right time to adjourn because we have done enough. For those of us who are new in the House, we have enjoyed working with our colleagues. When we came in, it was like a strange place, but after storming and forming now we are performing.
