• 14 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to commend the Prime Minister for that good statement. view
• 14 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: I want to agree with him largely that it is everybody’s democratic right to vote “yes” or “no” during the referendum. I want to confirm that on this one, I might be on the same plane with him. I want him to assure this country that given the events of the Referendum of 2005 may have contributed to the post election violence of the 2007, what specific measures will the Government take to ensure that both campaigners for “yes” or “no” vote, will stick to the truth in the Constitution and not peddle untruth? view
• 14 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Secondly, what specific security arrangements will the Government make to ensure that both the proponents for or against the draft will have to say their piece and be accorded the necessary security? The Government must make it very clear to Kenyans that this is debate and not a hate campaigns. Even after the referendum, the country will remain intact and move forward as one united country. view
• 13 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you, for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion.

• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will do the same. However, I had requested you in my second reason, which I think is an appropriate opportunity for you now, under Standing Order No.36 (b) (2), to do what is contained therein. It says:- “Business shall be disposed of in the sequence in which it appears in the Order Paper or in such other sequence as the Speaker may, for the convenience of the House, direct.” Since I have another one in Article 206, I would like to substitute these others. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also wish to support the amendment moved by Mr. Isaac Ruto. You cannot put a ceiling on the maximum land holding, especially in pastoral areas. The only reason as to why we keep on fighting and killing each other is to try to access this animal known as “pasture and water” for the sake of our animals. We seem to be forgetting. During our Parliament Select Committee retreat, we removed all these provisions. The Committee of Experts (CoE) is setting us against each other. The wisdom here is that if we do this, we will ... view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the amendment has the sole purpose of entrenching the CDF into the Constitution but since the mood of the House is such that we want this document not be mutilated, and since I am a firm believer of anti- FGM, I want it to remain intact. view
