• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is one of the most important questions that must be addressed in this House.

That is why in Article 174 of the Constitution, one of the objectives of devolution is how national Government can devolve its responsibilities and institutions closer to the people. Therefore, when ... view
