-Senate in consensusThe Senate, which is the Upper House of the Legislature, yesterday reached a consensus that forbids President Pro Tempore Armah Z. Jallah of Gbarpolu County from seeking reelection. Maryland County Senator Dan Morais, Chairman on Foreign Affairs, and Chairman on the Consensus Committee, told journalists after the meeting that President Pro Tempore Jallah will bow out, rendering his position vacant. The Daily Observer has gathered that four Senators have expressed interest to contest the likely vacancy of the President Pro Tempore. On the contrary, it means Sen. Chie will be our next President Pro Tempore,” the Senator said. “It means nothing if the President and President Pro Tempore come from the same county; the President Pro Tempore is just first-among equals, and if he doesn’t perform, 19 of us can remove him.
