• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: If you do not agree with any amendment that has been proposed in a meeting, you simply raise your hand, rise on a point of order or catch the Chair’s attention. I can confirm to the Hon. Senators that at my age, my eyesight or vision is still very good. Within the precincts of County Hall, I could have noticed any Senator who intended to oppose that particular amendment. None of them opposed the amendment to change the commencement date. Therefore, it was passed as proposed and that is what we signed against. Therefore, let it be on record that ... view
• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Switch on the microphone, Hon. Deputy Speaker. You are prone to get agitated when you see Senators in Kitui County purporting that the date was amended in this House while they know the facts. If they were sleeping in the Mediation Committee meeting, they can go back to the HANSARD or simply ask the members of the Press who covered the meeting what transpired since it was an open meeting. view
• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: What I want to be on record is that, we, in this House, stick to our rules and procedures. We cannot alter anything that has been passed by resolution in a Mediation Committee meeting through phone calls from the gym and I do not know where the Chair was.

If we need to alter anything, we must re-call the sitting and change anything. The Vice-Chair was seated there and he did not object to ... view

• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Senators said in Kitui County yesterday that they have witnessed somewhere a hospital which has been closed down. It is not happening in one county. Hospitals have been closed down in a number of counties because members of staff have downed their tools due to lack of salaries. In other places, there are no drugs. There are places where Kenyans are suffering. You have seen the outbreak of cholera even in Nairobi County because of dirty water. These are issues that ought to be addressed by counties getting their money at the right time. Therefore, I want to urge our ... view
• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: I want to agree with what the Leader of the Majority Party is shouting here. If some governors are not dancing Tetema somewhere in Mombasa, they are socialising with socialites in Los Angeles. That is the time they should be using to… view
• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Tetema is a song that has been banned by Ezekiel Mutua of the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) and yet there are governors who are very good at dancing in fora. When they are not dancing to the Tetema beat, they are socialising with socialites in Los Angeles. As they socialise with those socialites, they need to realise that the hotels they board in Los Angeles have a levy charge on visitors or tourists in that city. The money goes to the city government. If for instance, we should charge a levy to both local and foreign tourists who visit ... view
