• 20 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: County governments, especially those that have forest resources, have been agitating to have control over those resources. This Bill seeks to streamline this, so that even when we have the Kenya Forest Service, the county governments and the national Government, each role is defined in this Bill.

• 19 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Senator Kajwang’ was a bridge builder. He made sure that, though he belonged to the Opposition, he never antagonised members of the Jubilee Coalition.
