The arrest of Mr. Yassin Juma was malicious, offensive and capricious to the extent that up to now, even after his release, Yassin Juma was not clearly told the offence that he committed. One thing that really surprises me is that this happens in an era of serious diplomatic engagement and globalisation. Where this arrest took place is in a neighbouring state where we have a lot of institutional linkages like Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the African Union (AU) and many ... view

• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: we allow neighbouring states to treat our citizens must form the basis of our diplomatic engagement with that country. Kenya is a leading regional hub. It is not a country that can just be taken like any other. Therefore, what we expected is not just the arrest and the release. We cannot celebrate the release of Yassin Juma on the face of it. He was in detention for over a month. The explanation we expected is that either we are told as a country the offence he committed or we get an apology through the usual diplomatic channels. This is ... view

• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker, I know you are a former Chair of this important Committee and I am also a former Chair.
