  • 7 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: What is before this House is not a petition, but a Report of the PAC of the National Assembly. So Article 251 has broken down how commissioners can be removed from office. In the end it says that a petitioner may represent a petition to Parliament to look at it. If it is satisfied, it can forward it to the President to form a tribunal. I do not want Members to send you in a fishing expedition. The matter is very clear. I urge you to look at it in a manner that befits handling constitutionally. You cannot kill a ... view

  • 7 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to draw your attention that the other day we just discussed issues which are very important in the Standing Orders of declaring interest in a matter. Before Hon.

  • 7 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: The Committee says that they have sent the Auditor-General to audit this matter. Why not wait for the Auditor-General to finish his work and then table a report? What is the hurry in tabling this progress report unless you are playing to the gallery or talking to quarters outside this House? It is on record. I have served on PAC for the last five years before and on this term. This Committee is investigating, overseeing and auditing a feasibility study report of the KAA. I do not know whether feasibility studies are part of the Auditor-General’s report. Those are documents ... view
