She has urged the members to be present on that day.
Article 101(2) of the constitution on Presidential addresses provides that; “The President may, also, in consultation with the Speaker, address Parliament from time to time, on any matter of national importance.”
The address comes at a time when parliament is faced with four pressing debatable issues such as the NSSF Probe Report, Karamoja Mabaati saga, Anti -Homosexuality Bill and the pending censure of minister Persis Namuganza. It’s however, still unclear if the address will be focused on any of the aforementioned Key areas.
