Njobvuyalema made the claims on Tuesday afternoon in the National Assembly when stood on point of order.

“Second Deputy Speaker Sir my referral newspapers are missing and I suspect that DPP MPs have a hand on it and through you I am asking the DPP MPs to return my newspapers by tomorrow,” said Njobvuyalema.

Njobvuyalema’s attracted laughter from all both sides of the house and deliberations stopped for closer to two minutes.
