• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: As said by the Mover of the Motion - the Leader of the Majority Party - a need has arisen that was not appropriated in the 2017/2018 Financial Year. That need is mostly, among others, to finance the presidential election slated for 26th October. A big portion of the Supplementary Estimates will focus mainly on that, as has been said by the Leader of the Majority Party.

It is good for Members to ... view

Speaker, on this Motion which I support very much, the immediate former President of the United States of America, His Excellency Barrack Obama said: “Wishing your Commander-in-Chief failure is being dishonest and disloyal to your country.” We must realise that we have a country and a Commander-in-Chief at the moment. Each and every time there will be a Commander-in-Chief in this country, there would be no need of being dishonest or disloyal. That sums up all the arguments and the statements that have been given by leaders out there. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Article 249(2) of the Constitution talks of commissions and holders of independent offices. The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is a commission and an independent office and that is why it is called so. Article 249(2) states that commissions and independent offices are only subject to the Constitution and that they are not subject to the direction or control of any organ or authority.
