On the first day of its instalment at Parliament, the metal detector machine detected an Okapi knife whose owner has not been disclosed. Security guards at the National Assembly would not shed light on the details of the owner of this most revered weapon commonly linked to murders that occur in the country.

Opposition MPs have made comments of disapproval of the machine saying they were not consulted while their counterparts in the ruling party have embraced it.

Mochudi East legislator Isaac Davids would not go through the search point but headed straight to the chambers stating that he had no time to waste on the machine.
