• 1 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you. I rise to second the Motion by Hon. Keter on the establishment of the Kenya rugby union stadium in the country and high performance centres of excellence in every region. We need to live by the fact that this is a country that adores sports. During the World Cup, most Kenyans converged in common centres to watch football. People in the country adore sports. view
• 1 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Recently, our national rugby team represented the country in the world. Sports is not just a form of exercise. It can actually be used to generate money for our youths. It can be natured to be a career for our jobless young people. We have high levels of talent in the country and in diverse grounds including sports. Our young people, who are well talented and well equipped in their bodies, can engage themselves in sporting activities that can equally generate income for them. Equally, our people who want to lose weight to avoid lifestyle diseases lack places for exercising. ... view
• 1 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I rise to second and support the Motion by Hon. Keter.

• 26 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Indeed, this discussion is necessary due to the harm caused by the rains. I am a victim of being caught up in the rains while I was travelling from my constituency in Kisii County. Upon reaching Mai Mahiu, vehicles could not pass. The road had cracked into two parts and several other commuters and I left our vehicles. This was 10.00 p.m. in the night and we walked in search of safety. view
• 26 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: This matter needs urgent attention and all the concerned relevant authorities should act as quickly as possible because several people have been left homeless. This is not about transport but it also affects food security. People cannot go to work and in some constituencies, they are camping in schools in pursuit of shelter and even those schools are not safe. This is a matter that is of grave concern. It is important to look for ways of making sure that this is resolved generally and collectively through the relevant Ministries. I rise to second. view
