Let’s talk about the proposal from the National Assembly that will no doubt re-ignite the sibling rivalry it has had with the Senate.

So the Budget and Appropriations Committee, in what it says is a bid to tame the ballooning wage bill, has proposed to scrap the Senate, and have governors appointed by the President rather than being elected. They want this and a few other proposals put to a Referendum on August 8^th while we have our General Election.
