• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I want to inform you or the House that I have had a lot of interest in this. Will I be in order to beg that I be given the chance to prosecute this matter because I am the strongest opposer of this one? view
• 14 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. As one of the highest ranking Members of this House, I want you to listen to me very carefully. These Members have been vetted three times before they came to this Parliament. One, they were vetted by the EACC. Two, they got certificate of good conduct from the Criminal Investigation Department (CID). Three, they were elected by the great people of the Republic of Kenya. To subject them to some prefect is introducing a prefecture system that prevails in France. From the time of Speaker Humphrey Slade, the Committee of Powers and Privileges has ... view
• 27 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I join my colleagues in congratulating our great athletes. I want to say that when the story, or narrative, is told about this country, athletics will rank number one. I had the privilege of attending the camel derby in Maralal recently. You climb on top of a camel, sit on it and run. If you come down, you can also milk the camel while standing. So, I recommend that our athletes should be encouraged by being given cash, material support and national honours. Even those who have retired and who are now living in very poor ... view

• 26 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for granting me the opportunity to move this Motion. I would like to plead with you to allow me to donate two of my minutes to Hon. (Ms.) Tobiko, and one minute to Hon. (Ms.) Nyokabi. view
• 26 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to thank all the Members who contributed to this Motion. I want to promise that we will take on board all the good suggestions that have been brought forward. I just want to confirm to the House and the nation that this is a very important Sessional Paper. It will address many issues like the one that was raised about boundaries. The issue of boundaries is emotive. I remember when I was in primary school somewhere in Kapedo, one time we lost 60 people because of some boundary dispute. These issues are in the ... view
• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move that this House adopts Sessional Paper No. 5 of 2014 on National Policy for Peace Building and Conflict Management, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 31st July 2014. In moving the adoption of this Motion, I just want to say that it has come at the right time when we have quite a number of conflicts in the country. We have taken too long to come up with such a Sessional Paper. From pre-independence and post-independence we have had quite a number of conflicts in this country. A policy ... view
• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Is it not 20 minutes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker? view
• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you for reminding me, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do not know why we Africans are prone to conflicts. We have quite a number of conflicts in this country. For example, human and wildlife conflicts are rampant in this country; there are conflicts arising from land disputes, over pasture and water and conflicts arising from cattle rustling, especially among the pastoral communities. There are also conflicts arising from boundaries and political conflicts that lead to death, destruction and displacements. I will give examples of these. We have agro-pastoralists conflicts. This is where pastoralists drive their cows to graze on ... view
