11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, while I agree with what hon. Nkaissery has said, I support the Motion. However, I want to draw the attention of the House to two issues that need to be taken care of.

11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
First, the Leader of the Majority Party attempted to explain election party coalition agreements. Indeed, hon. Speaker, you have also explained that very clearly. I think a distinction needs to be drawn between pre-election pacts and post-election pacts. That is because it also involves other Members of this House like hon. Oyoo, whose party PDP had a pre-election pact with CORD. But something happened later on. I do not know what he will say because he is here.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a problem with my card and I cannot speak from there. Thank you very much for giving me this chance to support this Motion. Hon. Aduma is my brother-in-law and I am equally affected and pained for what has happened to my father and mother-in-law. It is only in a primitive country that a Member of Parliament reports insecurity to the police, his life is threatened, he takes a dead body to the Commissioner’s office to demonstrate the seriousness of the issue, comes to Parliament and reports the threats on this life and ...
