  • 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, to me, this sounds like a maiden speech after Members went on recess.

  • 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, as I report to this House today, I would like hon. Members to know that in terms of our welfare as Members of Parliament, we still have a lot to do. This is the first time I have come to the House since the time I was injured. Some Members are asking what happened. Most hon. Members have not been aware that I was involved in an accident. So, in terms of Members’ welfare, we need to do better. Maybe, through the Welfare Committee, we need to look into ways of making Parliament a bit accessible to people ... view
  • 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: I belong to the House Business Committee. I am very sorry to say that I shall be missing sittings of the House Business Committee because there is no ramp to enable me get to the Committee Room where the House Business Committee meets. So, as the Chair of the House Business Committee, Mr. Speaker, make sure that I am marked present because I will not be able to get there to attend meetings of the House Business Committee. view
  • 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I also wish to request that Committee sittings be responsive to the needs of people like me, who are on wheel chairs for now. We have spoken in this House before; that we should look into issues of accessibility for persons with disabilities. If you look at facilities like the toilet, unless you are in a situation like mine, for now, you may not know that people who have challenges like mine have to look at toilets that are responsive to the needs of people living with disabilities. As a House, we can do better. view
  • 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: I want to take the opportunity to thank hon. Members of this House and tell them that I am back for business. As you can see, I am now back here. I am actually very near the Member for Westlands. So, every time you do not see me standing, please, stretch your neck back. I also want to inform the people of Migori County, whom I represent, that I am up and well and ready for business and work for this country. Hon. Speaker, I thank you for the opportunity. view
