Sen. Cherarkey Madam Temporary Speaker, one of the things I have noted is that we are partial in prosecuting this matter.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Sen. Cherarkey has spoken to a matter before the Supreme Court. He has slightly given accolades to the courts on a matter, which behoves the Senate to point to and discuss. This is a matter touching on Petition No.24 of 2019 and a consolidated Petition No.27...

Sen. Cherarkey Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hate to interrupt my leader and former Member of the Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee, which I chaired. Sen. Dullo, being a senior lawyer, I expected her to provide proper guidance. We might end up misleading the House. Article 153 (3)...

Sen. Cherarkey Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.101 because Sen. Dullo is misleading the House. Remember that this Government is less than 30 days old, yet she is arguing as to when the procurement of fertilizers was done. I apologize but it seems being in...

Sen. Cherarkey Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not guiding you. I am requesting my colleagues to request when they want to speak.

Sen. Cherarkey Sen. Omogeni, you might be entering into dangerous grounds and you know that because you are a legal professional. This is Parliament.
