MUNDUBILE SUSPENDED FOR 30 DAYS FROM PARLIAMENT
The Speaker of the National Assembly has suspended former Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, Hon. Brian Mundubile from Parliament for a period of 30 days.
This was after Members of Parliament, through public acclamation, earlier rejected the recommendations from the Committee on Privileges and Absences for Mundubile’s suspension.
First Deputy Speaker of the House, Malungo Chisangano, was forced to call for a division, a physical voting on the matter.
The electronic voting was later conducted, which resulted in 67 members of Parliament voting for Mundubile’s suspension, while 47 voted rejected and one MP abstained.
Mundubile has since been suspended for a period of 30 days!
