What started as a tense debate quickly escalated into chaos, leading to the destruction of furniture, microphones, and other equipment in the committee room. In response, Speaker Bagbin strongly condemned the incident, calling it “disgraceful and deeply regrettable.” He warned that parliamentary privilege does not extend to disorderly conduct and criticized the MPs for failing to exercise even “a scintilla of emotional intelligence.”
