Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, Sir. I am very happy the Deputy President represented our country in what the Leader of the Majority Party has mentioned. That was a wonderful opportunity for this Government to really undertake official business, but you cannot go and look for support from West Africa for a rapid deployment force.

Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir. First, generals never lie. I want you to note that point. It is very important for the Members of the Committee to be honest. The issue of integrity is very important. We cannot come here and play to the gallery. I can see that Members from that side had a Parliamentary Group (PG) meeting and they got some instructions.
