• 8 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First of all, I appreciate Members who have contributed to this Bill. We see the interest it has generated. A record number of 25 Members have spoken on this Bill. Most of the Members appreciate and support the enactment of this law. This piece of legislation has been supported by all Members. During debate, some Members raised concerns on some clauses and we will look at them and propose some amendments so that we can be together. view
• 8 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: The other thing which was raised is the contracts between millers and farmers. Sugar importation must be controlled and should only happen when there is a deficit in the country.

• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to also contribute on this Bill. This is one of the greatest things this Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations has done to this country. From the outset, I would like to commend Hon.

• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It is moving up and it is also irritating. I persevere to have it on. As a member of the world community, we live among others, and we have other countries as members of the world community. Each of us have their own interests. The people that are hired and deployed in foreign services are such important cadre that not only advise, but also protect the interest of our country.
