• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, on the Judiciary, the President has pronounced and demonstrated that he wants to allow the rule of law.

• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: I remember I chaired the first impeachment committee of a governor. This House impeached that governor twice. The first time the courts overturned it on matters of procedure.

Judiciary, you are now being supported by this Parliament and the Executive. Enjoy your independence and give Parliament freedom to properly carry out its oversight role. view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, another issue is political parties. Whereas I would have loved my kid brother, Sen. Sifuna, to become the Chairman, I do not vote there.

• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, this is the time they are talking about issues of your county. The governor because of other reasons, including attempts to influence the Committee either through financial constriction – I am not casting aspersions against Members of this Committee because they are yet to become Members – or through the influence of political parties--- For instance, the Governor of Uasin Gishu County, with all due respect, will come before the Committee on County Public Accounts.
