• 14 Oct 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Is the Senator for Kakamega whom I really respect in order to insinuate that Nominated Members of this House and especially ones with disability do not add any value to this House as he does when he represents Kakamega County?

• 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute towards this petition.
