• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: long, I wish we could just do what we need to do to make this Bill pass fast. Now that we have disagreed with the Senate, I hope our procedures will be followed quickly and fast enough to be able to pass this Bill before we go for recess next week.

• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support this very important Bill. Corruption and bribery in Kenya is now a way of life. In fact, if we were to do statistics, I think all of us seated here today, will be found to have encouraged it one way or the other.

• 21 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. This is a very important Petition. In the last few months, you have seen here in Nairobi somebody waking up in the morning and extorting money from small businesses people.

I hope the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs will expedite it. What is important is having the county governments enforcing the ... view
• 4 May 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to speak on this Bill because it seeks to do something that ought to be done quite often, based on research, a country’s strategic interest and where the county thinks it wants to go industrially. view
