• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise under Standing Order No. 91(1)(2). If you look at this Report, for which I really want to commend the Committee, it says under Paragraph 278 on Page 91:- “The Committee noted that the hon. Mbarire withdrew her allegations that the Chairperson of PAC was the source of the defamatory claims published in the view

• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: “Hon. Mbarire made the allegation during a meeting of PAC of 26th February, 2015 and later withdrew the allegations within and during the same meeting.” In fact they have even put it in bold:- “…. during the same meeting.” Further, on Page 116, Paragraph 321(ii), it says:- “The following Members of PAC who made allegations against others and failed to substantiate their allegations within the period required under Standing Order No. 91---” They named all the Members, I being number five on the list.

• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Having seen the way my case has been treated, it was treated unfairly. I want to repeat to the Powers and Privileges Committee that they have treated me very unfairly and that they have used double standards to judge me. I think I will not second this Motion. Just do what you want to do. view

• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, whatever we do in this House must make sense. You have just insisted that hon. Bett must withdraw and apologise and he has done so. What is the purpose of doing so, if I withdrew, apologized but you are still putting me on the list? What is the whole purpose of withdrawing and apologising?

Namwamba making his submission on what he knew on the issue I raised in the Committee, I was convinced that he ... view
• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me add my voice to the debate by giving my sincere condolences to all the bereaved families through the act of terrorism in Garissa. From where I stand, I am pained because in Runyenjes Constituency, we lost Caroline Karimi, a daughter of my CDF Chairman. In terms of response to acts of terrorism, Caroline Karimi may not have died had help come early. The postmortem report showed a shot on her arm and one leg. Had help come early, she probably would be alive and kicking today. On Friday and Sunday as mourners ... view
• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Finally, we have our very own citizens hosting terrorists in this country. There are parents who know that their children have gone to train as terrorists, but they do not speak out. Leaders are aware of who is financing terrorism, but they do not speak out. They wait until it happens and then they speak out. We need to ask questions. Hon. Members, let us not pay lip service to this issue. It is a matter of life and death.
