• 11 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: With those many remarks, I support the Bill 100 per cent. view
• 11 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Member is misleading the House by saying that there is a Member who has contested and has contributed to the party. Remember, you contest in a constituency. You represent people all over the country. You do no contribute to the party. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. As Hon. Wamalwa has said, land is a factor of production. When land is held in Government custody but does not produce, it is a loss to this country and a loss to all of us. If the agriculture and irrigation failed, it is common sense for the Government to de-gazette the parcel of land and revert it back to the people of Tana River so that they can use it as a factor of production. That way, we can have food security. They are pastoralists and the land should be de- gazetted - ... view

• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. As we point fingers at the IEBC, remember the remaining four fingers point at us. When did we allocate itemised funds to enable the IEBC to carry out such duties? When I saw the Election Campaign Financing Regulations, I knew there would be opposers. The opposers are the usual culprits who do not want to account for public funds. Coming from Hon. Junet, he is a very good friend of mine. I respect him very much, but campaign funds must be published and accounted for. This includes campaign funds that were raised by the ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: We cannot throw the baby out with the bathwater. They delayed. I am saying that this is a very important Regulation. If you do not cap campaign funds, it means the richer you are, the higher the possibility of you being elected. That will lock out many hustlers who are very good leaders, but since they do not have means and the money, they may not be elected. So, as much as we discuss about them coming in late, already, they were tabled one year before the election. They were brought in last Thursday, and it was the duty of ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I appreciate. Ashe oleng’ entito ai naiborr illala; entitoo’loiboni. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Where is the NDMA? They are supposed to take care of these areas. Where are the people we pay a lot of money at the weather forecast department? It is so that they forecast for us so that we can plan ahead. If we can plan in this House and allocate money so that we feed those who will eventually be affected by drought, why do we not instead empower the same communities so that they are already empowered come drought? If we can plan to buy them a sack of maize each, cooking oil and powder milk, why can ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: you are related to the moran who killed that white man who tried to take a bull from him. You know the story. You know that those cattle are now dying in large numbers. You have seen that we are migrating all the way to the Mau Forest, risking spread of diseases and people are losing their livestock. There are people who have lost 80 per cent of their livestock. Imagine losing, at once, 80 per cent of your livelihood. As a Member of Parliament, imagine if you are today told that your salary has been reduced by 80 per ... view
• 4 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I have been adversely mentioned by Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ whom we know very well as CJ bonoko. He is the last person to comment on such matters. He is somebody who has sworn in an illegal president. He committed treason. If it was not for the handshake, Hon. T. J. Kajwang’ was a good candidate for Kamiti, yet he is the one pointing fingers. It is funny how in Kenya, people keep on pointing fingers at others without going back down memory lane. His Excellency Hon. Aden Duale has just enumerated occasions in which ... view
