"Well right now it's totally dead."

"Since Senator Joazile is the President (of Parliament) he should write the gentlemen a letter saying 'gentlemen please, let see if we can come together so that we can hold a meeting [1]'

"Me, I came here today for a meeting [2], but there is no meeting [3], tomorrow there won't be a meeting [4], the day after tomorrow there won't be a meeting [5] - for what reason?"

"It is meetings [6] that we are here to have, this is our home, the people have sent us here so that we can come to a meeting [7], but the gentlemen don't want to meet [8] to have a meeting [9]..."

Up until Wednesday the President of the Republic and Presidents of both houses have not met to discuss the selection of a third choice for prime minister.

The constitution states that with consultation from the presidents of the senate and chamber of deputies, the president is to choose a prime minister.

The government is at a stand still. Legislation can not be passed by the parliament, as their first duty is to install a prime minister, and the president has no executive power, without his chief executive, the prime minister.
