• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. In fact, I am surprised that hon. Washiali has all this information. For example, when it comes to the COMESA issue, he knows very well that we were supposed to privatise all our sugar companies, but that has not happened. So, he is saying that this will take effect on 28th February, 2014. How will it take effect on that date and yet, the Ministry has not done what it is supposed to do?

• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon.

My request would be that before the Cabinet Secretary can do this appointment, he should consult with the sitting Member of Parliament to ensure that there is equity and fairness in choosing this youth. Otherwise, I want to ask my fellow Members that even when the Deputy President was going round, he was urging us, the House, to approve these guidelines.
