26 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Chairlady, I want to say that from the outset, these amendments could have served me very well because, as you know, we are nomads and we cut cross from one country to the other. So, you just put the Kenyan flag on your camel, go for grazing to Ethiopia and Somalia, come back and your identity will have been protected. But reading the mood of the House, I oppose.

26 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
attack on innocent worshipers in a church in Likoni last Sunday. This again was an ugly face of terrorism which must be condemned with the strongest terms possible. My prayers also go to the family of the young child whom we all have seen on television and newspapers. However strong men are said to be, the sight of that child, with the bullet lodged in his head, brought tears into my eyes, and I believe it did the same to all other Kenyans. I, therefore, send my prayers and condolences to the families and the people who were affected on ...

26 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. This particular incident at Westgate showed how unprepared Kenya is on management of terrorism disasters. We have been living with terror attacks since 1998. It is very unfortunate that we have not yet built the capacity to save ourselves from this kind of terror.

should not be shaken and start civil war on grounds of religion. Kenyans must continue to realize that terrorism is an act of war that affects all Kenyans of all faith. Finally, I would want to join my colleagues in saying that the Report was not well done. This Committee needs to go back and do a good job, otherwise what they have shown us here is nothing more than what we saw on television.

26 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
For the first time I have a lot of respect for the two Chairs and the 58 Members of the Committee. The product that has come out of that Committee--- I want to raise issues with recommendation No.5, which says that the Refugee Act should be repealed. Kenya is a signatory to the Vienna Convention and we are under obligation to host those refugees.

26 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
Recommendation No.6 says that Dadaab (Daghale, Ifo, Hagdera, Kambios) and Kakuma refugee camps should be closed. It is not like a birthday party. You cannot close them down. Kenya has signed international agreements. As long as we are signatory to the Vienna Convention, you do not wake up one morning and close those camps.
