• 1 Jul 2015 in Senate: I think it is an issue of the House now. It is a very direct issue and should be dealt by the House to assist the people of Kiambu. Therefore, I request the Chair to give directions. view

• 1 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I agree with the sentiments of my sister but it would be important to tell the country that we do not have in mind whoever will be the chair. I would have replied to the issues that she is raising during the time for reply--- view
