July Moyo is the most corrupt minister in Zimbabwe, Biti says as he is kicked out of Parliament

THE HON. SPEAKER:  Can you sit down. I am attending to Hon. Biti – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – Order, order!

Can you sit down, I am attending to Hon. Biti.   Can you sit down? Can you tell your colleagues to sit down?  – [HON. BITI: Chimbomirai vakomana, chimbomirai. Eee, Hamauswa, can you sit down? – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – Order, order! – [HON. BITI: Chimbomirai akomana] – I do not want you to get out of the House.  Can I attend to what I am being given here?  Be orderly.  In this case, this issue becomes void and there is no Pomona Deal. So, I am saying in my ruling, this court application is the crux of the matter; was this contract entered into and has it validity or not. Once the court has filed this matter, then we proceed accordingly but if it says the contract is null and void, then there is no issue. I thank you Hon. Biti for that one.

HON. BITI: Mr. Speaker, if I can respond.

HON. TOGAREPI: Is this now a new way of running Parliament?

HON. BITI: There is a narrow issue before the court…

THE HON. SPEAKER: Hon. Biti, can you please sit down.

HON. BITI: Will you allow me a right of reply.

THE HON. SPEAKER: Whether the issue is narrow or expansive, let the courts decide accordingly. I will not entertain any further debate. I have ruled.

HON. BITI: The right to be heard is a fundamental right.

THE HON. SPEAKER: Hon. Biti, I do not want to charge you.

HON. BITI: I will sit down. You asked the Minister to explain the law. The Minister has not explained the law. The law has nothing to do with this court application.

THE HON. SPEAKER: Can you leave the House!

HON. BITI: You can chase me but you cannot chase my submissions. My submissions are solid. This application is too narrow.

THE HON. SPEAKER: Get out of the House! You are not a judge.

HON. BITI: I am a senior lawyer. Delish Nguwaya stole COVID funds and it is the same Delish Nguwaya in this deal. July Moyo is the most corrupt Minister in the Republic of Zimbabwe.

Hon. Biti was escorted out of the House.
