• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Our society is becoming insane because, a long time ago, our parents used to take care of their parents and grandparents, but we of this generation do not really care about the old members of our families.

The ongoing invasion of millions of locusts in parts of the country is causing terrible destruction and massive land degradation, damaging rangelands, croplands and most families are losing their livelihoods.
