• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am happy with the two weeks period.

• 7 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: My first comment is on the call for another public holiday. We do not need another public holiday. We need more working days. Religion is a private matter.
