• 26 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to support this Motion with amendments. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of land in this country has been sensitive. I think we must begin moving away from this idea of settlement because land will never be enough. Land has never increased but we have increased the population of this country. We must now try to do everything possible to make sure that we develop this country in a way that, instead of people thinking of land, they should now be able to get some employment in other sectors. If you go ... view
• 26 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support. As hon. Members are aware, Kenya is considered to be one of the most civilised countries in the world. If we cannot behave as civilised people, I do not think we deserve that kind of credit, which we have been given by other countries. So, all of us, and particularly us, leaders, must make sure that we behave like people who live in a civilised country. With those few remarks, I support. view
• 20 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to support this Bill. Terrorism is a dangerous thing in this world and almost everybody in the world is fighting terrorism. It is necessary that we have a Bill to deal with this particular thing. We have suffered in the past because of terrorism and it is all known that it is a dangerous thing that we must deal view
• 20 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Good. That is very good. We need to give them morale so that if a policeman suffers in the course of duty, he should be supported.

They shoot and then they are taken to court immediately. In the incident that happened in Garissa, the guns were taken from the policemen and the same guns were used to kill the police officers. The police officers fear that if they shoot they will be taken to court and ... view

• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, for giving me this opportunity. I also rise to support. We have had people who are not loyal. They are only loyal around election time – the moment they are allowed to stand on tickets of certain parties, but when they come to this House, they become wild animals. These characters should not be given a chance anymore because they cheat. Why should you say that you want to be a member of the party when you only want to stand and only use that party to win? Some of them cannot even win ... view

• 28 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, that is why I cannot be bought because it not easy to buy me. They know that when Gumo decides, it is finished. So, that is why some of you who are not reliable are fighting to remain there. So, I support and people must remain in one party and there must be discipline in each party. view
