• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in primary school, I was taught by somebody by the name Ms. White, who was a relative to the Queen of England. view

• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Therefore, I speak the Queen’s English direct from the source and there is something called similes. Very many times, I have been called a "lion.” This does not mean I move on my four limbs. It only means that I am brave. Therefore, if I say that a salary is synonymous with a bribe to make you forget your ambitions and make others achieve their ambitions, I mean what I say, I say what I mean, and I know that is the truth. Moving forward before I was rudely interrupted, this Bill tends to solve the issue of our court ... view
• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: On a point of order. view
• 23 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, whatever goes to the HANSARD should be very true. The Member has said that this country is a unicameral Parliament yet it is a bi-cameral Parliament. We have the Senate and the National Assembly.

• 18 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to bring in the voice of reason since I do not have a NG-CDF account. I will be very independent and objective in my contribution. In today’s Order Paper, we are supposed to discuss very important Bills like the Division of Revenue Bill and the National Aviation Management Bill. I do not see how these businesses are tied with the NG-CDF. We should move forward and prosecute the mandate that brought us here. Does it mean that if there is no NG-CDF we will not debate the other very important business? view

• 18 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Are we prosecuting our business based on the importance of the Motions and Bills? We do not need time to go and negotiate. We only need to prosecute the business that is in front of us. Does it mean that the NG-CDF is a bribe? So, let us prosecute the important business. Does it mean that this business will only become important if the NG-CDF has been deposited into your accounts? view
• 18 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support the request to defer this particular Motion. I do so because I have been an elected Member for 10 years and I know a Member of Parliament without NG-CDF is useless. view
• 18 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: I also know as we get nearer to the elections, if as a Member of Parliament you are not able to do most of your projects, next year will be almost impossible to do anything meaningful. At around February or March, they will freeze your accounts and you will not be able to do much. It is time you got your money. It is time this Parliament reasserts its authority because I have seen the authority of this House go down in a great way and I feel very sad. You must stick to what we used to do, that ... view
