He alleged that the Senate has been personalized, hence lawmakers are afraid of expressing their opinion.
According to Ndume, “Senators are afraid of expressing their opinion on what they believe in for fear of persecution, discrimination or sabotage.
“For instance, everything is in the hands of the Senate leadership or the President of the Senate.
“This is to the extent that if you go against the standpoint of the Senate President there is the possibility of missing certain advantages and privileges that senators see as important; so, they compromise.
