Igara West MP Raphael Magyezi who recently tabled the age limit Bill that seeks to amend the Constitution and remove the presidential age limit this afternoon stormed out of the legal and parliamentary affairs committee, which is currently discussing the Bill.

Magyezi, the first witness of the Constitutional Amendment Bill walked out protesting heckling from Opposition MPs on the committee.

Efforts by the committee chairperson Jacob Oboth Oboth to calm down MPS proved futile as the deafening noise continued.

The infuriated Magyezi got off his seat and moved out escorted by some Opposition MPs who continued heckling him.
