Joel Onyancha for being selected to serve on the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations, and also on Public Accounts Committee; so is his colleague, hon. Tongi, who is to serve on the Committee on Energy, Communications and Information.

I again want to associate myself ... view
• 11 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: As I was saying, the Leader of Majority Party will bear me witness that there are Bills which have come here for the Committee on Education, Research and Technology to handle, but they have been pushed to the next day because nothing is happening.

• 5 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, is the hon. Member in order to use un-parliamentary language in this Chamber by saying that the Governor is full of himself? In as much as we are debating the issue of traffic jams in Nairobi, is he in order to use that phrase? view
• 27 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I do not want to use the words I have heard people use: “Put him on”. I do not think that is Parliamentary. I personally support that amendment. I will not shy away from using words that are in this digital era because as an hon. Member said, it is very easy to convene a meeting even within a day.
