Hon.

18 Sep 2024 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is against this background that I seek a statement from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs on the following matters: 1. The circumstances under which Hon. Yussuf Hussein was abducted and the status of investigation into that mysterious abduction which was reported at Makadara Police Station. 2. The steps the relevant Government security agencies have taken to ensure the missing MCA is expeditiously traced and reunited with his people. 3. The security measures the Government has taken to guarantee the safety of all leaders and Kenyans in order to protect them ...

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 ...

18 Sep 2024 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, we need to get a commitment from the Chairman. He has talked about Tuesday which I totally disagree with. It is very far. We want the Chairman to bring a statement this afternoon. He is capable of doing that. We need to empathise that an elected leader is missing. It is not a laughing matter. You can bring an answer. I am persuaded by the statement that has been made by the Deputy Leader of the Majority Party. We will do that. As we do so, my friend, Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee ...

18 Sep 2024 in National Assembly:
I hope nobody is tampering with the ICT system here. All evidence points that Hon. Yussuf is being held by our security agencies. Can you assure this House that we will find Hon. Yussuf alive as you bring that statement?

15 Aug 2024 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Speaker, allow me to congratulate the ranking Member, Hon. Millie. She has also been the Chair of Parliamentarians for Global Action. I appreciate Hon. Millie as a very pragmatic, astute and quintessential debater, and leader. The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has just realised this, belatedly though.

15 Aug 2024 in National Assembly:
That being the case, Standing Order 106 as read with Standing Order 19A clearly refers to relevance. Secondly, the issue of the Minority and the Majority is clearly spelled out under the Standing Orders. Will I be right to say that we are debating something that ought to have been discussed outside this House? Thirdly, Hon. Naomi Waqo clearly said she was not given an opportunity. We are debating what she said; the issue of a broad-based government is a rumour in this House. It can only be attributed to outsiders. As parliamentarians, the structure remains the Majority and the ...

14 Aug 2024 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Kenya is a melting point of many nation-states. All of us must remember our forefathers who brought us together from different regions to make a claim on this beautiful premier nation called Kenya. These two great ladies, one coming from the nation-state of Turkana and the other from the nation-state of Luo, will add great value to the governance platform of the Republic of Kenya. We also need to thank the President for thinking out of the box, being a statesman, and bringing Kenyans together when everybody expected things to go haywire. Hon. Speaker, we also ...
