We want to do it now! view

• 17 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to join my colleagues in condemning the terrorist attack that took place in Mandera, where the governor almost lost his life. We lost the lives of many other Kenyans. The Al Shabaab threat is real. The sooner we confront it as a nation the better for all of us. We have heard that from Border Point One in Mandera all the way through Liboi, Difu to Kiunga it is a long stretch. We need to deal with this menace of terrorism in a very special way. It should not be in the ... view
• 17 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: we seem to be wavering in terms of the way we normally deal with the issues. As a nation, we should deal with what is happening in Mandera once and for all.

However, if our brothers and sisters, the Members of that specific Committee take advantage and allocate money to their constituencies, this is going to be unfair. We need to promote fairness in this. So, I would propose that the Kshs3 billion, forget about the amendment on the loan that was read--- We are only interested in the Kshs3billion.

• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: As I finish, unless we know the list of the beneficiaries that Kshs3billion will have to be suspended until we agree on this matter.The devil resides in the detail.

I rest my case. view
