• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, please, allow me to thank the Assistant Minister and the Officer in Charge of Luanda Police Station and the Administration Police Commandant for Emuhaya for the good job they have done so far. However, this problem is still there. I would like to know from the Assistant Minister the action he has taken to ensure that the people who sell bhang and chang’aa in the market are apprehended, so that we do not have many mad people in the market. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, based on the answer I have received from the Assistant Minister, gambling has become a rampant activity in Luanda. Worse enough, view

• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill. I want to take this opportunity to thank the Minister for coming up with a very revolutionary Bill – a Bill that is deviating from what we have been having in terms of management of our urban areas, and coming up with a new governing structure. This new governing structure, I believe, is going to transform our urban areas. I am particularly very happy with this Bill, because for the first time, it has come up with the structure on how our urban areas should be classified, managed and ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we also know very well from this Bill that we can now manage our towns using an integrated development plan.

• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill. I want to take this opportunity to thank the Minister for coming up with a very revolutionary and innovative Bill. This is a Bill that has new and good ideas that will make this country move forward. I particularly want to say that I am very delighted with the way the Bill has been written. It provides very clear information with regard to citizenship.

• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to say that I am very happy with Part IV which deals with rights and duties of citizens. This is very clear and very important. For the first time, our Bill is defining what your rights are. These rights are already defined in the Constitution but this Bill goes further to do the same. It particularly gives the rights on citizenship, entry into this country, leaving this country and where one resides in this country. It is very categorical that, as a citizen, you can reside anywhere in this country. This is ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, tonight is my happiest moment. It is my happiest moment because this Bill captures what I have spent many years advocating for. Therefore, I am very excited. I want to thank the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources, and the Minister for Lands for coming up with a very brilliant Bill. This Bill has been written by professionals. When I read it, I just knew that it was written by professionals. This Bill is going to address environmental and land disputes, which are so numerous that our Judiciary cannot handle them. I want to agree with ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: That is Clause 23(3). It says:- “Where it is expedient and appropriate to do so, the Court may direct that proceedings be conducted and appearances be made through electronic means of communication, including tele-conferencing, video-conferences or other modes of electronic communication”. This brings us to the latest technology! So, this is better. Finally, these courts are going to be available at the county level. Therefore, the local wananchi will be able to access them. I could speak the whole night but I will stop there. I want to support. view
