Murkomen that there is nothing really to celebrate, but insist that we will not allow a position where they pick and choose which Bills to bring here and which not to. With that determination, come next week, this matter will be in a different forum, so that it is decided, once and for all. view
• 10 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, sometimes people get excited with little powers. There was once an Attorney-General in the National Assembly who said that since that the President was all powerful, he could even fire him as the Attorney-General because he was the one who appointed him. He did not know that his day was coming. When he was being fired, he The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 10 Jul 2019 in Senate: remembered that there was something called the Constitution. One day, it will dawn on the National Assembly that there is a document called the Constitution.
