• 29 Jan 2020 in Senate: I want to say that in the proceedings, we were not bound by the strict rules of evidence. When we are determining this matter, what we are being called upon to do in the absence of evidence before us is that we are going to determine this matter by having failed to admit evidence on the basis of a technicality which, in my view, is a violation of Article 159(2) of the Constitution of this Republic. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the matter that we are deciding is very weighty. The election of a governor to the office of governor and the ... view
