Speaking to Mmegi yesterday, following the President’s call for a Special meeting, just ddays before the State of the Nation Address that was scheduled for November 2, the Speaker said she was not sure what was going to happen after December 1 - the date when the special meeting will end.

At this point I am not sure if the President will prorogate the meeting and make the State of the Nation Address,” she said.
