• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to second this Bill which is very important. You will note the temperatures that were raised, especially when the Ministry tried to allocate Kshs6.7 billion, the rest of Kenyans felt they needed Kshs30.4 billion. That means our counties are ready to move and the only way they can move as from March to June is for us to pass this Bill so that the allocations are very clear and so that we are within the law. With those few remarks, I beg to second. view
• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, indeed, I was in the House when you gave that directive, but you actually did not give the clarifications.

• 9 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank this House and the two Principals for their quick action. Remember that it was just the other day when this House rejected the first names and they were very quick in responding and sending us new names.
