• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Shukrani, Mhe. Naibu wa Spika kwa kunipa fursa hii kuchangia Mswada huu. Kwa kweli, utamaduni ni kitu muhimu. Tujiulize utamaduni ni nini? Ni nini kinachangia utamaduni? Hapo ndipo tutafahamu maana ya vile wahenga walivyosema, “Muacha mila ni mtumwa”. Hii inaambatana na msemo unaosema, “Penye wazee hapaharibiki neno”. Ni kwa sababu utamaduni ni mambo ambayo yamechunguzwa na yametokezea kwa muda mrefu, yakahifadhiwa mpaka leo hii na tunayatumia kwa mambo mengine. Hapa nchini, tumetupa utamaduni kidogo. Nakumbuka kwetu Taita Taveta, kulikuwa na utamaduni wa kuhifadhi mazingara. Kulikuwa na mahali wazee walikuwa wanaenda kufanya mazingaombwe yao na kuomba miungu yao. Ikiwa hapakuwa na ... view
• 28 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. From the outset, I support this Motion. This is a progressive Motion and not a retrogressive one. At the same time, it is a proactive way rather than a reactive way of dealing with issues of firearms. This is the only way in which we can know genuine firearms and the ones which are not genuine. Movement of arms has become very easy due to porous borders. Guns find their way into our major towns and national parks. That is why cases of crime and poaching have been increasing. ... view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I totally oppose this amendment. Most of the Members supporting it are on the Government side, but in future, they will also be on the Opposition side. This provision can be misused. Already we have police officers within the precincts of Parliament. I believe Members of Parliament should be as free as possible. Therefore, I totally oppose this amendment. view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Shukrani, Mhe. Naibu Spika. Nasimama kuunga mkono hili swala. Kwa kweli hawa wazee wa vijiji ni watu muhimu sana, manaake kawaida viongozi huwatumia hawa watu na baadaye wanawasahau. Ni vyema wangewaangalia kimfuko manaake wao kwa upande wa usalama ndio nguzo. Kila mtu anayeingia katika kijiji ndio wanaomfahamu. Ukiangalia maswala mengine kama kesi ndogo ndogo, wao ndio hutumika. Ni vyema tuwaangalie vizuri hawa wazee wa vijiji. Naunga mkono kwa dhati kabisa maswala ambayo wenzangu wamezungumzia. view

• 1 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Bura Girls High School is in my constituency. The custom and tradition of the school has been that all students, regardless of their religions, learn together; and they have been doing well. Segregating students on the basis of their faiths is a dangerous direction to go. We all know what this country is going through currently. Segregating students into different religions is not something that can be allowed in this country. Likewise, other schools which separate students on the basis of religions should be stopped henceforth. view

• 1 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Let me clarify. With regard to this case, given the way the students have written their petition, this is actually discrimination. In religion, discrimination is not good. I am talking about Bura Girls Secondary School. Discrimination is not good in this country. The Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology should look at this issue in detail and find out exactly what happened. In Mwatate Constituency, I have both Muslims and Christians and they have been learning together for a long time. Therefore, starting such an issue at this moment is not allowed at all. Thank you. view

• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity.
