He demanded to know why Ziyambi would not table the motion himself.<\/p>\n<p>The ZANU PF Chief Whip, Pupurai Togarepi, tried to offer an excuse for Ziyambi, saying the minister wanted to go to the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>But Ziyambi corrected Togarepi and said he wanted to converse with his staff. He said:<\/p>\n<p>There is no rule that says the deputy minister cannot move the motion.<\/p>\n<p>Mudenda then told Ziyambi that his private conversation \u201cdoes not take precedence\u201d. He then ordered Ziyambi to leave the house. Ziyambi and Togarepi then approached Mudenda\u2019s chair to continue the protest.<\/p>\n<p>Mudenda\u2019s microphone was initially live as a livid Ziyambi demanded to know what rule says a deputy minister can\u2019t move a motion when a minister is present.<\/p>\n<p>Mudenda claimed this was in \u201csection 107 of the constitution\u201d and Ziyambi challenged him to open it. Mudenda moved his hand to pick up the constitution but did not open it. Said Ziyambi:<\/p>\n<p>You were harsh. It\u2019s not correct Mr Speaker to embarrass your own minister.<\/p>\n<p>Mudenda\u2019s microphone was then turned off as the conversation continued. Ziyambi subsequently left the National Assembly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
