Mr. Speaker, Sir, considering the curfew that was issued by the President that no Mheshimiwa or anyone should be spared if found flouting it, and that it should be enforced; I request that you provide appropriate guidelines on how we should proceed considering it is almost 9.00 p.m., the curfew time.

Madam Deputy Speaker, we have agreed that COVID-19 is a serious pandemic and the President issued protocols. He was emphatic that the curfew time is 9.00 p.m. He said that no one should be exempted. In fact, he said a mheshimiwa . Therefore, we must follow the health protocols. We cannot be leaders who are breaking the rules. What example will we be showing the country? The curfew starts at 9.00 p.m. and we must go home. That is my concern.

There are many people in areas across the country who have been evicted by the natural disasters that have happened.

The other day, people in Molo in ...
