  • 20 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for identifying me to speak this morning. Actually, I am talking from the experience I have as far as this issue is concerned. Security in Kenya starts with village elders. Village elders are quite important as far as collection of security and intelligence is concerned. They guide even the chiefs on the issues they are supposed to solve. They handle boundary disputes on farms and family disputes before they reach the chiefs or the Assistant County Commissioner. By the time the matters reach higher levels, like the ACC‟s office, the ACC will ... view
  • 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, mine is just a comment. It is only wild animals that live in forests. In Tana River County, Bangali and Mbalambala are in the forest. There are trading centres, grazing land, Administration Police (AP) posts, hospitals and schools. Can we change the names “Bangali” and “Mbalambala” if they are forests? view
  • 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: That is a good amendment. People live there, but they are now turning the whole area into forests. If the Government cannot degazette these two areas, we cannot live in the forest because we are not wild animals. view
  • 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady for your good consideration. I support the amendment by Hon. Ali Wario, my neighbour, brother and student.

  • 1 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank Hon. Dawood for bringing this important Motion. It is very important to have good health facilities and good roads in our constituencies for care of critical issues, when it is necessary. We need good roads, so that we can get to hospitals in cases of emergencies.

  • 1 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: the hospitals, it is good to have facilities like blood transfusion centres and ICUs in constituencies. Constituencies should have blood transfusion centres and ICUs for emergency purposes. For example, in case of accidents, people are taken to hospitals where there are no facilities like ICUs and blood transfusion service. It is good for our counties and all constituencies to have these facilities. view
  • 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, for giving me this chance. I have been here from yesterday and I could not get this chance. I support this Presidential Address. One good issue that he mentioned at length is the issue of corruption and the corrupters. These people remain suspects and innocent until proved guilty. Once they are proved guilty they should be taken to the courts so that they can be punished like any other Kenyan, whether they are in the Government or any party. These people are Kenyans and they must be punished for stealing public property. The President has talked at length ... view
