• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Another enemy we have, and I call them enemies of the NG-CDF because they still are, is the civil society. The NGOs took us to court and the civil society also came and took the NG- CDF to court. I remember Members of Parliament then contributing from their salaries to pay lawyers in courts. Another enemy that showed up after the new Constitution is the governor. Today, governors want access to the NG-CDF. Already they have money we do not see yet they want the little Members of Parliament have. view
• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: I also get worried whether the Executive has also become an enemy of NG-CDF. Why are there delays? In the 9th and 10th Parliaments, delay was not an issue.

• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: all constituencies. When money is delayed, it becomes an audit query. I encourage the new members that once they have been confirmed to take the NG-CDF matter seriously. I believe the Committee first got a commitment from them because the biggest challenge we have had with previous board members is that of turning MPs their enemies. I believe that once they are confirmed, the Select Committee will have a workshop with them and let them know their mandate. Their mandate is to protect NG-CDF and facilitate Members of Parliament in deliverance of their services in as far as NG-CDF is ... view

• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, on behalf of my Chair I beg to move: THAT, the Schedule to the Bill be amended in the proposed amendments to the Kenya Defence Forces Act (No. 25 of 2012) by – (a) deleting the word “on” and substituting therefor the word “or” in the proposed amendment to Section 133 (1); and This is purely a typo.
