They are our friends, but sometimes they raise good issues as when there is hunger or floods; but they should also understand, as my colleague, Member for Kikuyu, has said here, that during the clashes in this country, the media contributed greatly by giving wrong information about our country. view
• 15 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I support the Bill and also advise the media houses that they are Kenyans just like us. When they report, they should have Kenya at heart. They belong to the 42 tribes of this country just like it is the same with this House. They should show our children in school and other learning institutions that we value them as Kenyans.

• 9 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: these accidents in this country. I know we have police officers in every constituency and other areas. It is the duty of the police to take care of our country. If they do not work, then this House will change them. I want the Eleventh Parliament to think differently from the other House and we work together for the sake of this country.
