• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr., Speaker, Sir, for straightening the matter. I said that according to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government, Kshs33 million may have been misappropriated. I wish to know whether this was just misappropriation or it was something that could lead to some criminal activity. If so, what action is intended to be taken? view

I actually wonder the source of this clause and it should never appear in any of our laws. view
• 23 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Bill before us. The issue of the police being reformed is definitely a necessity. But in spite of all this, we should not forget the fact that Kenya has one of the best police force. It is not just enough for us to talk about a few bad elements.
