• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to thank the Leader of the Majority Party for giving me two minutes to make my remarks. This amendment seeks to cause recognition of these important offices and it is important to note that they were never captured, particularly those of the Senate.

• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: There are other Articles of the Constitution which also need to be looked at. It is important that while we cause this recognition, we also look at the provisions of the Constitution. I support this. It has also captured the Leader of the Minority Party in the Senate who is my party leader. The FORD-Kenya leader is the person who holds that office.

• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I will talk about my Bungoma County. The Governor of Bungoma has twice organised activities at the airstrip in Bungoma Town in my constituency. Bungoma Airstrip is one of the facilities in Bungoma which, apart from Busia, are near to the towns of Mbale, Tororo and Lwakhakha on the border of Kenya and Uganda. The airstrip is near Mount Elgon and it is quite a distance from Bungoma Town. However, some people have encroached the airstrip land, which is about five acres and have acquired title deeds and ownership documents of the said land. view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I wish to ask the Government to ensure that this airstrip in Bungoma is built and protected. Those who acquired land meant for the airstrip should surrender it back even if it means being compensated. Therefore, I support this Bill and urge that in the event of further infrastructural projects, Bungoma Airstrip should be one of them. view
