• 7 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise on behalf of the people of Mukurweini to offer my condolences to the family of Dr. Wahome Gakuru. He was a good friend of mine. Mukurweini gave him the second highest number of votes in Nyeri County. He was my good friend, mentor, humble man, son of Mau Mau and great leader. I have no words to describe him. Here is a man who was humble enough to know that leadership and greatness comes from being humble. He went around the country campaigning for our President. He was one person upon whom Nyeri leadership ... view
• 7 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: On behalf of my family, I want to condole with his family and more so, his boy who is in Form Four. I know it will be a very difficult time for him but I know God will give him courage to face all that. As I conclude, I also want to wish a quick recovery to all those who were involved in the accident alongside him and in particular his personal assistant - AGM Gakuru - who is also my constituent.

• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: there is no leadership vacuum. As you can see, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am standing on their side and I want to tell them that there is no vacuum even in this august House. Indeed, all the seats on this side of the House will be occupied by Jubilee Members in the event they do not take them up. Finally, despite the fact that the ruling of the Supreme Court went against the President’s expectations, he chose to ensure that there is peace in this country. I want to quote one of the USA Congressmen called Lamar Smith who said, ... view
