According to deputy speaker Hon Thomas Tayebwa, they are supposed to receive a statement from Hon Ssegirinya Muhammad showing that he is sick.

Hon Thomas Tayebwa said if that receive the documents needed they will process and make sure the member of Parliament Ssegirinya Muhammad gets fine.

“As Parliament, we don’t know anything about Hon Ssegirinya Muhammad’s sickness and treatment. As speaker of Parliament, I heard about his sickness through TikTok nothing else. In order for Parliament to pay the bills we need official documents unless that nothing will be done,” Hon Thomas Tayebwa said
