• 16 Feb 2021 in Senate: Security, Defence and Foreign Relations and he stood with me during my election to the position of the Vice Chairperson and advised the Members of the Committee to elect me unopposed as his Vice Chairperson. I have been looking up to the late Sen. Haji in carrying out my duties as the Vice Chairperson of the Committee. Unfortunately, his death leaves me wondering what God had planned for the late Sen. Haji and I. I served with the late Sen. Haji in the 10th Parliament of the National Assembly. Both the late Sen. Haji and I were in the opposition. ... view
• 16 Feb 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I had a big challenge in following the directions that were given to me by the late Sen. Haji on how to conduct the inquiry surrounding the arrest of the three senators because I personally felt that we needed to defend our Senators in the open. However, I had a lot of respect for the late Sen. Haji so I ran the meeting exactly as he had instructed me. I will not forget how Sen. Murkomen and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. busted me in this House when I tabled the report of the findings of the meeting ... view
• 16 Feb 2021 in Senate: I remember the late Sen. Haji as a friend and somebody who looked at me and thought that I could be changed to be a responsible leader who has respect for authority. The Members of the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations had planned to go visit the late Sen. Haji in hospital this week unfortunately that never happened. I will always remember the advice he gave me to always respect the Government of the day. May God rest the soul of the late Sen. Haji in eternal peace. Amen. view
• 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.47(1), to make a Statement on the ongoing demolition of properties and evictions in Kisumu County.

The demolition was on the stretch from the Koru-Muhoroni-Kibos-Kibuye- Juakali-Otonglo-Lela in Kisumu West. Locals are really crying for their lost investments. The current county government as I know was voted in office to provide ... view
• 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will do so. They have destroyed a mosque that has been there for over 60 years and there is no alternative. That is why, as I conclude, this is a matter of urgency and we need the Speaker to form this Committee to move on the ground as a matter of urgency and national importance. I thank you. view
• 9 Feb 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I did not want to interrupt my good friend, Sen. Murkomen. However, he has been here for a while and you have heard him using unparliamentary language; ‘the hustlers’. If the Bill will only help the ‘hustlers,’ does it mean we only have the ‘hustlers’ in the Republic of Kenya? Who are the ‘hustlers’? view
• 16 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I want to thank Sen. Khaniri for bringing this Statement. I want to assure this House that Vihiga and Kisumu counties have been coexisting peacefully for a very long time. As the Senator for Kisumu, it will be my responsibility to make sure that peace continues to exist between Vihiga and Kisumu counties. If there is anything that will disturb the peace between Vihiga and Kisumu, it calls upon us, as the leadership of Vihiga and Kisumu, especially here in the Senate - Sen. Khaniri and I - to call a baraza and invite all ... view
