Kodwa, uthi, ikwenza oko ngendlela apho amabala okudlala angekho kumgangatho.
Umntu ozimeleyo kufuneka afumane iivoti ezininzi kunezo kufuneka umgqatswa wombutho wezopolitiko afumane isihlalo kwiNdlu yoWiso-mthetho. Oku kungenxa yokuba ishedyuli yoMthetho iyalela ukuba abantu abazimeleyo bavumeleke kuphela ukuba bakhuphisane ngezihlalo zengingqi hayi oko kubizwa ngokuba “zizihlalo zembuyekezo”.

“De sibe silazi ifuthe lokugqibela loMthetho oza kulawula imiqobo ekungeneni kwabantu abazimeleyo siyabanciphisa ubulungu,” utshilo.
Uthe isicombululo silula kwaye siya kuhamba ngendlela ethile ekuqinisekiseni ulungelelwaniso olupheleleyo ekubunjweni kweNdlu yoWiso-mthetho ngokusondeza isabelo esifunwa ngabantu abazimeleyo kufutshane nezo zifunekayo kumaqela kwaye “ukubuyisela umlinganiselo wokulingana kwevoti”.
