• 3 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is not the issue of energy. We cannot keep on misleading this House. If you are not reading the BBI Report or you are reading it backwards… There are no 70 slots for women. There is actually no single slot that has been set aside for people living with disabilities. Why is he misleading the public and the House? He is actually out of order. It is not in order to mislead the House. Where are the 70 seats for women? Where are the seats for persons with disability? view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: There is nothing out of order, It is actually in order. As Narok, we feel we are being targeted. Our illiteracy levels are very high, but whenever there is a head teacher who performs well and a school’s mean score improves from 230 to 301 marks, they get transferred. It is not the first or the second case. We want the TSC to consider that our illiteracy level is very high and when there is improvement in our schools, we demand that those teachers do not get transferred. view

You know I have a world record having served the shortest period as a Member of a parliamentary select committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity only for two months and 14 days. I am proud of my record. Article 54 of the Constitution, the Persons with Disabilities Act, Sessional Paper No.14 and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of ... view
• 13 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: The achievement of the 5 per cent employment of persons with disabilities (PWDs) as enshrined in Article 54 of the Constitution appears to be just a mirage, especially if affirmative action is not undertaken by the same House that makes such laws and policies. It is against this background that I seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Select Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on the following: (i) Could the Committee explain how the 5 per cent affirmative rule for appointment and nomination of PWDs to various State and public offices can be achieved as the National ... view
• 13 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity and, at the outset, I want to say that I support the Report in its amended form. Before I even contribute, let me congratulate you for hosting the Law Society of Kenya for a cup of tea. That is because they came thinking that they will take over Parliament.

They should have just called me that they wanted tea, and I ... view
