• 19 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Will I be right to suggest that when the citizens on the ground see such a callous response, and you understand the rights… We are not talking about an ordinary citizen ― and every Kenyan has the right to be protected ― but an elected leader. The abduction is unconstitutional. The response clearly demonstrates lack of responsiveness. Will I be right? Today, they are not even saying… view

It is on record from Friday last week to date, but there is yet to be an official response from the Government or those who are tasked with this. We have asked our colleagues who are the interluders between Parliament and the Executive and the response ... view

• 18 Sep 2024 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, those are semantics. The bottom line is that an elected leader is missing. Whether it is abduction or disappearance, it is a brazen attack on the rights of an individual, a citizen and an elected leader. I plead with the Chairman that Tuesday is too far. This is an emergency. An elected leader has been missing for five days. This should be a national crisis. I ask the Chairman to respond not later than this afternoon or at worst tomorrow afternoon, but not Tuesday next week. You can have the answer either this afternoon or tomorrow in ... view
