By Own Correspondent- There was drama in Parliament on Wednesday as Zanu Pf legislator for Nkayi South Stars Mathe confronted opposition MDC Zengeza West legislator Job Sikhala and threatened him with death over a comment he had passed while she was making her contribution in the August House.

A highly charged Mathe, left her seat and approached Sikhala, pointing a finger at him while at the same time threatening him with death.

Sikhala however remained calm and did not retaliate only to speak after the Speaker of Parliament Jacob Mudenda had reprimanded Mathe for her actions.

Said Mudenda:

“Hon Mathe, we do not encourage that type of behaviour and approach in this House. You do not go about pointing fingers at other legislators but you point fingers at each other through debate. Apologise for you actions.”

In response to the threat, Sikhala said:

“I know she (Mathe) has threatened me with death but i did not take her seriously because, she does not have the capacity.”
