Osotsi mention the name of Raila Odinga, and other Members mention other names, it pains me because this is no longer a political matter. When he starts mentioning, during such a very important debate, the people’s president, we also have the President of the Law ... view

We have done this as a country through Article 154 of our Constitution and through a Person with Disability Act of 2003, Session Paper 14 and also we have been able to achieve this because of the goodwill of the Government which has set up policies and funds that assist persons with disabilities. ... view
