Sunday, 12 June 2022 04:31 AMA nominee to the legislative assembly is required to have no connection to business enterprises . a requirement ..very ethical and laudable for it prevents conflict of interests on decision making ..but then if the family is connected .then the rule loses its credibility .I wonder how the law was interpreted in this case or how the nominee relinquished his POSITIONS in the business world to be of a real service to the nation ...laws are indeed left ambiguous for lawyers to have a field day .
