The Minority Chief Whip Muntaka Mubarak has threatened that his side will reject any bill brought before the House if the anti-gay bill that is currently before the House is not passed.
The Asawase Member of Parliament, Muntaka Mubarak said on the floor of the House, Wednesday, June 8 that the delay in passing the bill was worrying.
He stressed until the anti-gay bay is passed, even if the government introduces a bill that seeks to bring water to the people of his constituents, the NDC MPs will oppose it.
“So far, as this constitution is concerned when we introduce a bill in this house and it is before the committee that committee must not spend more than three months without coming to tell us reasons why it has to go beyond the three months.
“…Since this is a matter that the Chair of the Constitutional and Legal Affairs wants to use to delay that bill, that bill was in this house before several other bills, I can assure you that any other bill introduced in this house, we shall resist it. Even if it is to provide water in Asawase we will resist it.
“We will make sure that that bill, as long as it stays there no other bill passes through this house.”
