19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
From what I am reading in the newspapers, I think hon. Sakuda is so busy with taking the likes of hon. ole Ntimama to see the President. I hope he is at State House with hon. ole Ntimama. But for hon. Mwiru and the Chair of the Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations, I think your office and my office need to sit down and come up with a strategy. We shall make sure that the chairs of committees of this House do not curtail the operations of the House. They are chairs because they were elected by Members and ...

leadership roles that this House has bestowed upon them. At least, for the Vice-Chair of Committee on Lands, hon. Sakuda, who is very busy with taking the Maasai leadership to State House---

19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly:
I am sure the Standing Orders are very clear. It is not for hon. Duale or the Speaker to tell you what to do. If you are sitting here and you are from the Committees on Lands and Defence and Foreign Relations, you know what to do when your Chair fails you. It is not a Jubilee or a CORD matter. The moment you are a member of a committee, you are a committee member of the whole House. So, hon. Members of this House, I am sure as we continue, you will see more chairs missing. I think, from ...

On a point of order, hon. Speaker. This matter came before this House in the Tenth Parliament and the House spoke on it. The Committee needs two weeks, yet this is a matter involving very few schools in this country. If we want, we can ashame them on the Floor of this House; those who want to mistreat Muslim students by not allowing them to wear their scarfs. It is not all the schools in Kenya. Those schools are known and I am sure the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology is aware of them. The Committee, through me, can ...

There was a school in western Kenya that said that for the girls to pass this year’s KCSE examination, they must all shave their hair. That is ridiculous and shameful.
