• 19 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: In conclusion, although I was tired, there was no way I could leave without contributing to this Report because I deferred with Alfred Keter and I am now alone in the House.

His National Assembly is the rallies and the funerals he attends in Nandi County where he talks about other leaders. view
