He also alleged that Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka's decision to formally oust him as Majority Leader was made under duress.
"Mr Speaker, this is not your decision. You made this decision under duress and undue influence and I am sorry you had to do it. Thank you, Mr Speaker," Senator Murkomen said.
Speaker Lusaka had approved the leadership changes that will see Samuel Poghisio replace Murkomen in the House.
