• 28 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Senate Minority Leader claimed that the Jubilee Government came into power fraudulently. Could he substantiate or withdraw? They went to court and the court gave its verdict. Do you have your own mechanism of determining that this Government came into power fraudulently? view
• 28 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I concur with some of the sentiments from the Senator for Migori but I think capacity building also takes time. Even if you give all the money you can give; without capacity, know-how and adequate staff who are properly trained in that area, I do not know if we will win the war. That it is something that needs to be discussed between the two levels of Government. view

• 7 May 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also made a request to the Committee on Health on the babies who disappeared at Pumwani Maternity Hospital. I know that it has been a very protracted issue but could the Committee at least give us an idea as to when they will finish the investigations and give this House an answer. view
