• 26 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I will take probably two weeks to give a response. view
• 11 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, for this opportunity. I just wanted to say that the late hon. Chelagat Mutai is an inspiration to young female legislators like me and some of my other colleagues and she will continue to be so for the coming generations. Hon. Speaker, she is an inspiration to upcoming young politicians who aspire to have position in this Legislature, for example, Kethi Kilonzo. I pray for her family and the people who knew her personally. I thank you. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I had to apply some desperate measure to catch your eye. view
• 10 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: I was trying to catch your ears and eyes, but they were not forthcoming. I wish to add my voice to this discussion which I think is really important. I am the Chairperson of the Committee on Implementation and that is why I was desperately trying to catch your eye. I can assure you that I and my 28 Members have our 32 teeth intact. We are grappling with the quagmire that we are finding ourselves in. We are, indeed, faced with a concern because as a Committee, we have clear resolutions to follow from the previous Parliament. However, I ... view
• 10 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker. I take this opportunity to thank hon. Kajuju for donating one minute to me. I maybe one of the hon. Members who may not have a clue of how miraa or khat tree looks like but I have seen on television and I have heard about it. I can only imagine what it is, but to a Kenyan Meru, khat is like a cow to a Kenyan Maasai because of its economic mainstay nature. It is a livelihood issue. I am also in support of the very pragmatic approach that the Motion has taken where ... view

• 2 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, thank you. I rise to second this Motion moved by my sister, hon. (Ms.) Ali, T.G. As she has mentioned, we may not be having floods in the country at the moment but it is needless to say that the amount of destruction and devastation that this country or the citizens of this country have continued to suffer year in, year out as a result of floods that affect, not only the north eastern counties that have been mentioned, but many parts of this country, is immense. As I second this Motion, I wish to mention that ... view
• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion very passionately and wish to congratulate Mheshimiwa Zuleikha for bringing this very important Motion to the Floor of this House. I am also glad to say that the Mover of this Motion has actually placed a very important task on the table of my Committee. I chair the Committee on Implementation and I can assure you that this is going to be an issue of priority that we are going to take up. view

• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I support this Motion, I wish to say that matters of the youth are no longer just aspirations. They are no longer just wishes. Article 55 of our Constitution actually does recognise the youth - and this is the Bill of Rights - as a very important category of citizens who need special attention by the Government and this particular provision goes ahead to actually mandate the Government to do a number of things to pay special focus on the youth. Any continued neglect of the youth actually amounts to outright violation of our Constitution. ... view
