• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: On penalties, I have seen the prescribed penalties, but I still think that the penalties are not punitive enough in some areas. You will find somebody selling scrap metal will serve one-year jail. We should be more serious on this. If we want to curtail theft of road signs in our urban areas and roads, we should re-look at the issue of the penalties and fines. The fines should be commensurate with the tonnage of scrap metal that a person has been caught with. Otherwise, a blanket fine will be to our disadvantage. view

• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, when I talked to the Chairman last time, he told me the answer was ready and it was just a matter of presenting it to the House.
