• 17 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: I support. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I too will be very brief. I support the Report of the Committee and their recommendation to appoint 14 persons who are listed here. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: I have noticed that these are career diplomats. They have already served in other stations. We have not heard any adverse report against them. Therefore, they have the requisite qualification and experience. I believe that they will serve the country well. There is the issue of the age of the nominees. Some of these positions call for maturity. We have no problem with their age. There are several other jobs in this country that people can apply for. I believe in the wisdom of the President in appointing these ladies and gentlemen to these positions. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Once again, I will not take too much time to contribute. I support the Motion. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I too stand to support the Report of the Committee. I appreciate the Chairman together with his team for being proactive by moving with speed to look at the possible areas of risk.

That Report can be used to see how best we can improve the situations in those police stations. We urgently need civic education for our police officers to ensure that we do not spread this disease further. As it is now, all the countries are experiencing these challenges at the same time. You cannot even say that you will benchmark anywhere on how they have handled ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much. I support the Report of the Committee. I once again congratulate the Committee. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I too join my colleagues to support. I have noted that the critical issues have been captured: the qualification, the integrity and also the fact that there must be citizens of Kenya. The second one is that four out of seven, if you have a majority in the appointing authority, it places the greatest amount of say to the Parliament. Therefore, I support. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I, too, support the Report of the Committee. This Motion is coming at the right time. It is timely particularly now when we are facing a lot of challenges in terms of not passing the two-thirds gender rule.
