• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wanted to contribute before you give a chance to Hon. Chris Wamalwa. I want to persuade him, in case, he wants to ask for more time. I was also among the 187 Members, but one who was not in agreement with this amendment. I would have voted against it.

The drafters of the Constitution had a lot of wisdom that informed the selection of August rather than December. view

Nobody should misconstrue what the gracious lady and the good gentleman, that is the Member for Kapenguria, are saying. It was a good session. Hon.
