January 8, 2012 (BENTIU) – Last month before a new nation celebrated the first Christmas festival after independent, the speaker of Unity State relieved two MPs as chairperson in the affairs committee of being alleged for his impeachment.
On Sunday Sudan Tribune reached the chairperson of information committee Simon Gatluak Pech Dak after legislatures discussed the fired MPs from their position and confirmed as the constitutionals act of Speaker in the state constitutionals.
Pech said that it is unwise to Politicizing the whole system, because if one act as the committee specialists, that is why we call them standing committee, they are not there to polities any issues. He added that the decree issue on the 23rd December 2011 is justifying by the assembly, and it is something that took time because Hon. David Jany was actually tabled his resignation on 26 October.
“it has taken long time for Speaker to study and the speaker has right to decree him out because it took him three month and still active working as a chairperson and all over the world if one resigned, you definitely quit the office”, said Pech.
He Furthermore stated that the speaker issue the decree, because honorable member never stand on his feet as he resigned, because he still working as the chairperson, that is why right honorable speaker issue a decree.
Pech added being legislatures we know, what has been issued by the Speaker is Constitutionals because we had the enough time for this case, and we have studied it and the speaker actually informed the honorable members and that is why he has accept it and that is why he actually issue the decree.
Pech denial Hon. David Jany who claims that his removal was calling for transparencies of 2011 budgets implementation.
“This issue the committee who is concern is a committee for economics and planning and we know our state has been going down siding the staffs and now we can see the budgets is in place because our public services is now there is public services which has been reformed and actually they are trying to instating all budgets into system”, said Pech
Pech said that Unity state was having more than 8,000 staffs and now coming back to 3,000 staffs, so in that process how could you see it, it is actually a big task and we can’t actually take this task easy for the Ministry of Finance, trades and industry plus the Ministry of Public Services, so that they are actually working on it and I don’t think that is the case point for him to claims.
