• 12 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: the things Duale was saying. Little did he know times would change. Now I look at Duale speaking the way he speaks today and when I see the likes of Jaguar and Owino wanting to go after each other’s throats, I just know they are young in politics. Things will change. Do not be surprised in 2022 to find Duale and Baba in the same ship. This is politics. view
• 12 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Thank you for the correction. It is only fair. I repeat that do not be surprised if you find Baba and Hon. Duale in the same boat. So, whatever we do, Members of Parliament need to know this is politics. Just the other day, we saw Munya, the former Governor of Meru, shift. One day, he was in PNU, shifted to NASA and overnight, crossed to the other side. Because of time, let me urge that as we go out, let us preach peace. We have no other country, but Kenya. With that, I support ... view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to talk as somebody who came here as an independent candidate and as a referee. I am neither with Jubilee nor necessarily with NASA, though I campaigned for them. I have not been included in the list of members in NASA although I do support NASA most of the time. I want to put it this way: When you are out there and you are not in government, you talk very differently. When you join government, the language also changes. Therefore, my plea is to remind Members that we are Members of Parliament and ... view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: . Whatever comes out of the mouth of a Member of Parliament is not honourable. And it is both sides of the political divide. All of a sudden, the more you abuse the other side, the more you become famous. It is shameful. There is nothing honourable about abusing the Head of State. I said it here. I remember during the swearing in of the 10th Parliament, one Member of Parliament, and Ababu Namwamba, refused to recognise the Head of State. What happened many years later? Is he not with the Head of State? Times and politics change. Do not ... view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: We have a responsibility as politicians to stand up and defend our statuses. view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: On a point of order. view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Is the Leader of the Majority Party in order to purport that the HBC can sit down as constituted with four Members from one side when Members from the other alliance are not constituted and approved by the House? We know very well the issue of quorum comes only after the entire Committee is constituted. view
• 31 May 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. Sometimes I ask myself: As a country, do we have a contract to supply the Indian Ocean, lakes and big rivers with water? This is because sometimes in a particular region, it may rain everyday for a whole week but, two weeks later, you hear people crying because of lack of water. The Mover of this Motion has done a commendable job. The relevant departments should be involved and not only the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries or the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development, ... view
