• 19 Mar 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. With your permission, I would like to request further that when the chairperson is bringing that very important statement, to allay the fears of members of the public that corruption has now gone into the marking of the exams to the extent that principals of certain schools talk to the marking centres so that their schools are given better grades. view
