Papua New Guinea Parliament went into a fiery heated debate between the opposition and Speaker Job Pomat after his annoucement of defects in the filing of a notice to move a vote of no confidence against Prime Minister James Marape.
It took a 75 minutes of heated exchange, a point of order after a point of order, when opposition members described the decision by the private business committee chaired by the Speaker as biased and reasons for declining the motion to be put on notice paper as "parochial".
The speaker appeared to be contradicting himself saying it was a matter of national importance but yet attempted every instance to vigorously defend it.
After sometime, he finally made up his mind to override the private business committee's decision and allow the motion to be put on notice paper and moved in Parliament the next day (Thursday).
