• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: As I finish, I would like to ask the Ministry of Health to really look into the matter of increased suicides among young people in this country. It is worrying and should be taken seriously. In my constituency, I have formed a committee to investigate the matter and report what is happening. We discuss what to do. I cannot do this alone. I call upon the Government and all social institutions to help deal with this menace once and for all. view

• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to second the Motion that the time be limited as it has been explained by the Member who has proposed the Motion. It is good to notice that unlike other Motions, this one limits also the amount of time that is given to the Leader of the Majority Party. As the proposer said, time is money. If we have as many policies and procedures in this House as possible to ensure that the Government runs as smooth as possible, then we need to limit this time. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker.

You come from my county, Nakuru, ... view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: I was reflecting on the President’s Speech. He mentioned many things. In addition to his respect of the law, even respecting the judgement of the Supreme Court even though he did not agree with it, I found that I am in the right country. We are headed in the right direction. Long gone are the days when people used to disobey the law, court orders and all the arms of Government. The fact that the Commander-in-Chief, even though he disagrees with a court ruling, says that he will adhere to it; sets a very good example to us, especially us ... view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: However, I would like to assure my honourable colleagues that the young people of this country have changed. We have become wise. We know when we are being used, and we know how to make economic contribution to our country. view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: When I got here in this morning, I found members from the Opposition signing in and moving out. I remember a verse in the Bible which says, “He who does not work should not eat.” These people are still going to enjoy being on the payroll despite not coming to the House to work. When I saw them walk out, I remembered reading in the Constitution that one of the biggest functions of a member of the National Assembly is legislation. If I were a shopkeeper and my shop attendant did not come to work, or he just came, signed ... view
