He advised the new MPs to demonstrate a strong sense of patriotism and be of good behavior while representing their constituents.

The Speaker: “You have a lot of privileges, but to whom much is given, much is expected. Our roles are expressly articulated in Article 103 of the constitution. We need to examine ourselves and sharpen our tools so that we can deliver our mandates effectively. Among other reasons, the people who elected us, are watching.”
