Some MP's Behaves Like Infants- Blakk Rasta

Popular reggae musician and broadcaster, Blakk Rasta has claimed that some Members of Parliament acted like infants when he was summoned.

Blakk Rasta has been speaking about his observation of some MP when he was hauled to Parliament to meet members of the privileges committee.

According to him, immediately after he got into the chambers some MP’s started behaving like infants when they saw him.

The ace radio presenter was hauled before Parliament in 2015 after his allegation on-air that most MPs smoke marijuana.

He was however invited to appear before the privileges committee to justify the comments.

The Committee of Privileges consists of the First Deputy Speaker as Chairperson and not more than 30 other Members. It enquires into any complaint of contempt of Parliament or any matter of privilege, which may be referred to it.

Speaking on the Prime Morning TV show, Monday, Blakk Rasta said, “You should have been in Parliament to see what was happening, when I was passing, some Minister stretched his leg and said where are you going? They were doing all that, they were as infants. Some of them.”

He reiterated that “Parliament should apologize to me, of course, yes, you brought me there and wanted to embarrass me.”

He explained that the reason Parliament owes him an apology is that his statement at the time was to call the legislature to legalize marijuana. And he feels vindicated as the law-making body has approved the medicinal use of the substance.

He added his voice to a growing number of people who have suggested the substance should be legalized, although, according to him, he doesn’t smoke.

“I don’t smoke! Parliament invited me and I said 80% of them smoke marijuana. The content of the whole thing was that marijuana should be legalized, please let it happen because you guys are those making the law.”
