4 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Chair. It is sad that for the people who use this very important artery to note that a road that should have been completed on 24th April, 2014, is only 2.6 per cent complete as of now. The truth on the ground is that the road has since been rendered completely not motorable. I am also aware that this was a joint venture between the World Bank and the National Treasury. When the contractor had this problem, there was a ruling by the International Court of Arbitration at The Hague, which ...

4 Nov 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have built my clarification and asked one question. I want to seek a second clarification on this very important project.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is nice that you brought up this matter when the Senate Majority Leader is here. He solicited for our signatures yesterday requesting that we ask the Speaker to convene the House on Friday, which we signed. Could he clarify how the Friday that we signed became Saturday? Had he asked us to sign for Saturday, we would not have given our signatures.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to share the bitterness of the Chairman of the Committee. Twice, we have been kept waiting. On one of the occasions, the grapevine was that some forces---
