Magama's Motion Came At The Wrong Time

Kindly allow me some space in your lovely newspaper to air my personal views as per the above-subject matter.

The Member of Parliament, Akanyang Magama's motion was of course plausible and unfortunately for MP, he brought the motion at the wrong time when the BDP, a party with great cultural tradition and morality is in the process of a transition. So as such no one with due human common sense will expect the BDP members to support such a motion at this critical moment. The motion in itself was ill-timed to coincide with the incoming of the new President. It could have created animosity within the BDP, should they support it. I am not in opposition to the motion but the time at which it was tabled and I want to salute also the BDP men and women to have not supported this motion for now.

You have proved to us that you are a well-organised and oiled machine to resist that temptation. Some jealous persons will think that you were protecting your parliamentary and Ministerial positions. You are really Honourable, you must in all ways possible give your incoming President an auspicious occasion, and I greatly thank you for that. We are aware that there are those full of both audacity and loquacity who have suggested that the incoming President is going to fail and as such will the BDP government.
