Over 167 signatures from MPs have been collected and signatures needed are 177.
Ssekikubo and his team wrote a letter to the Clerk to Parliament requesting for the vehicle to use in their journeys of looking for MPs in their constituencies since they are in recess however, the clerk told them that it is the Speaker to determine whether to avail them with means of transport.
