• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have not in any way misled this House. I want my learned senior to know that there is no provision that requires a duration. That is why you can see some have served for six years, others five years and others three years.

• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. My colleague and nephew, is out of order in making any reference, even by way of quoting another person, to his own uncle as a boy. view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope today being a day we are looking forward to a Motion of Adjournment, we will finish this Motion quickly. view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Let me start by acknowledging and thanking the Committee that provides oversight to my Ministry like all other Ministries. Let me also thank the hon. Members for taking the initiative to visit some of our missions and also visit countries--- view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am replying. view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, yes, and there is no rule that says that I reply at any particular time. I can reply at any moment and I am replying. I am sure hon. Members want us to finish so that we can go to the Motion for Adjournment. view
