• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: which I will be bringing--- We need to see how the Government can assist women who cannot have children.

Member for Turkana said “multiplying” in the Bible does not mean multiplying but it talks about procreation. The essence of marriage is procreation. A lot of people, when they get ... view

I wonder why he says that he is clean and he would not want to step aside, but he just wants to ... view
