Parliament Discovers New Way to Avoid Responsibility

Parliament Discovers New Way to Avoid Responsibility

Speaker of Parliament Jacob Mudenda has clarified that the National Assembly does not consider matters raised through mainstream or social media. This statement comes after Youth Minister Tino Machakaire publicly called on President Emmerson Mnangagwa to address the country’s ailing health system.

Zimbabwe’s health system has been facing significant challenges, with many citizens expressing their frustrations on social media. The country’s hospitals and clinics have been plagued by shortages of essential medicines, equipment, and personnel. The situation has led to a growing outcry, with many demanding action from the government.

As the legislative arm of government, Parliament plays a crucial role in holding the executive accountable for its actions. However, according to Mudenda, the National Assembly’s procedures do not allow for debates on issues raised through the media. This stance has raised questions about the effectiveness of Parliament in addressing pressing national issues.

In response to Machakaire’s call for parliamentary debate, Mudenda stated that the National Assembly’s procedures are guided by formal rules and protocols. He emphasized that the House can only consider matters that are formally tabled before it, and that social media and mainstream media are not recognized channels for initiating parliamentary business.

Mudenda’s remarks have sparked a mixed reaction, with some arguing that Parliament should be more responsive to the concerns of citizens, regardless of how they are raised. Others have defended the Speaker’s position, citing the need for formal procedures to ensure orderly and effective governance.

As the health crisis continues to worsen, it remains to be seen how Parliament will respond to the growing demands for action. Will the National Assembly find a way to address the issue, or will it stick to its formal procedures? The answer to this question will have significant implications for the country’s health system and the lives of its citizens.
