    Azar you hit the nail right on the head. Injunction cannot stop the speaker from going ahead to rule on the motion.

    LAY MAN . SHUT YOUR MOUTH. THE SUPREME COURT IS SUPREME TO ANY OTHER PRONOUNCEMENT. DO YOU KNOW MORE LAW THAN ALBAN GBAGBIN. NOW THE SUPREME COURT HAS PRONOUNCED. TELL HIM TO GO AHEAD AND SEE IF HE WILL.

    Azar is puzzling: he has used a plethora of case law to support his argument, yet he has advanced the reasoning devoid of judicial interpretation.

    And who says the injunction is meant to stop Parliamentary work? It's called pre-emptive strike. Smart move by the Majority. Kwaku Azar is talking booklong, the Majority Caucus is talking smart politics.
