7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
Personally, I have people I respect from the pastoral communities in the group of seven. These are people who have worked very hard; they are from places like Suguta Valley, Banissa and Koturo, which are remote. To join a university from those places and rise to the level of a judge is not easy. So, it is a decision that is very hard to make for some of us.

We want to recommend that these ladies and gentlemen who are members of the JSC, the seven of them, be taken through a tribunal. We want them back once they are cleared. However, if they will not be cleared--- Of course, they must face the full force of the law.

7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, lastly, we have to draw a line between the Judiciary and this Commission. This is a constitutional Commission like others. There is a super commission called the “JSC”. They are both constitutional commissions and they must be treated equally. If this report is adopted, we want the President to deal with this matter expeditiously, so that it is cleared within the shortest time possible. If some of them are cleared, let them go back to their positions, but if they are not cleared, we will tell we are sorry that we cannot have them in our JSC.

Somebody raised the issue of seismometer. There is no seismometer. There is no barometer to measure seriousness or whether this is a small sin or a big sin. Both of them will take you to hell. If you are a Christian, both a small sin and big one will take you to hell. Of course, we are told that during the day of judgment, Africans will attend late because they are always late comers.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, in summary, I want to say that I totally support this report. I want to request hon. Members that let us support it, so that we can stop impunity in a very respected institution. Please, do not block investigations from this House. I support the report.

6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, since this matter is really urgent and very sensitive, especially to the leaders of Coast Province and Muslims in general, I would rather read it out in the presence of the Member of Parliament. So, you can defer it since he may come later; or you may defer it to another day.

The issue of this officer has been discussed in several fora, especially in the last Parliament; it was a big issue in Trans-Nzoia. So, we really need to get to the bottom of it. We will present the report in two weeks, hon. Speaker.

6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, I have tried to expedite this matter because it is really urgent. Highway robbery has become too common in this country. The office of the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government has actually not given this report. I have reminded the office concerned and I would ask the hon. Member to wait for one more week. I will do the follow up and bring an answer in a week’s time.
