Reports say the fundamental resistance APC protested the presentation of the guidelines of the PR framework, then again the decision party embraced the PR framework. At the mark of settle on a truce, a commotion came about that finished making harms State properties..
With practically zero a lot of understanding to the battle prior, Zainab Sheriff picked to make more discoveries and the said Parliament uproar.
As per her discoveries and clarifying her discoveries for the least for comprehend, Zainab Sheriff unveiled that the PR framework among different advantages will deny residents the ability to pick who addresses them in Parliament as the 'main past the post' did over the course of the years since after Autonomy.

As a result of some hot tempered MPs, the well went into blows for minutes with total chaos and property distractions.
There have been rumours that the opposition party, APC started the fight from the videos that have making rounds on the media which where taken right inside the well at the time of the pandemonium.
