• 9 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if, for example, you lost sight at your age, it would be something very difficult because you will see darkness, and you have been seeing light. Now, you start seeing darkness and you cannot walk the way you are walking. Therefore, you will require some psychological and some professional counselling.

• 2 May 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion, which is very important. I would like to begin by congratulating the hon. Ochilo-Ayacko, who has brought this Motion to the House. We all have experienced problems in our respective areas related to the issue of land grabbing. Institutions, schools included, have lost land. This problem in ownership of land has been in existence for many years. It is now time the Government took action to ensure that the ownership of public land is regularised to ensure that institutions like schools ... view

• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The hon. Member for Turkana Central enjoys interrupting me. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it is important for all of us to note the fact that women are fewer in this Parliament and we cannot, therefore, blame them when we do not have all of them here because they also have other commitments. view
