Chibaya raises a stink in Parliament after saying Chamisa is president of Zimbabwe

THE HON. DEPUTY SPEAKER:  What has that got to do with the business of this House? – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – If you continue behaving in that manner, I will send you out Hon. Members.  You are disrupting the smooth running of the business of this House – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – I am giving you the last warning.

HON. T. MOYO:  On a point of order, Hon. Chibaya said Chamisa is the President of Zimbabwe. That has to be withdrawn – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] –   The overzealous member said Chamisa is the President of Zimbabwe and that has to be withdrawn.

THE HON. DEPUTY SPEAKER: Hon. Chibaya, may you be honourable and withdraw your statement?  Why are you misleading the people?  Hon. Chibaya withdraw your statement!  Hon. Chibaya withdraw your statement! – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] –
