 The Senate has resolved to debate the ruling of an IBS State High Court ordering the deletion of Section 84, Subsection 12 of the Electoral Act. The Senate's decision was equal to a point of order raised by Senator Thompson Sekibu representing Rivers East Senatorial District on the matter. Senator Sekibu, who came under Order 10 and 11 of the Senate Standing Order, urged the Parliament to treat the matter with a sense of urgency and debate it immediately. Because of a judgment that was delivered in IBS State, I think just last week, that's what I'm coming with this order. I don't have anything against the judge, but as a president, the difference what the man is relying on in the judgment is not the interpretation of the Constitution. The Constitution defends for us who is a civil servant and who is a public servant. It does not include political appointees. It does not. Also, Section 4, give us the power to make good laws. And in our mind and our mindset, any law we are making here is a good law. Now, Section 228, give us also the power to make certain laws to guard the independent National Electoral Commission so that it can effectively discharge a function. This Senate here and now look into the issue concerning the ouster, the attempt by the court in IBS State to oust some sections of the bill we just passed into law. Concerning the issues surrounding the public servants in politics and who want to run elections and all issues there too. I second it and ask that this Senate discusses here and now. President Sen. Omwa Gege, who presided over Tuesday's plenary, suggested that lawmakers delay to debate until next legislative session. He said this is to accommodate the absence of the Senate president and other legislators who weren't present to also participate in the debate. After listening to the contributions of other lawmakers, the Senate resolved to suspend the debate until its next plenary sitting on Wednesday. The reason I took this decision is because I want a fuller house. I want a fuller house for this debate because this matter is very, very fundamental and it will be good to have the input of all senators. And I'm not sure that people had noticed, I'm not sure, I'm not sure that people were privy to the fact that these discussions will arise this morning. So I think it's in the best interest of this chamber that we give all of our colleagues as many of our colleagues as possible the opportunity to show up tomorrow and make their input.
