• 14 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this House has gone both ways on matters of impeachment. We have seen this House deal with impeachments the committee and plenary way. I have been an ardent supporter of the committee way because I feel they can interrogate issues more closely, just as Sen. Sifuna said.
