• 27 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me the chance to talk about the President's Speech. I have been here since 2.30 p.m. and I have been listening to my colleagues contribute. What surprises me is that, some hon. Members are now not behaving like hon. Members of Parliament, but horrible Members of Parliament. I am sorry to mention that. I get surprised when somebody stands up to talk about a vehicle which somebody has bought.

• 27 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, leaving aside the Hummer vehicle, let me talk about education. We must now start taking our education system more seriously. I thank the Ministry of Education for the effort they have made in providing free education. However, looking at the free education, you find a teacher teaching 100 pupils in a March 27, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 147 classroom.

• 8 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Assistant Minister for the efforts he has made with regard to Sifuyo Primary School. However, even last year, the Assistant Minister promised the House that they would transfer teachers to the same school. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, today, he is talking about transferring teachers there by the end of November, 2006. So, which one is the truth; what he told the House last time and did not do, or what he has told us today? view
