• 31 Jul 2013 in Senate: What is it? I have the right to dispute any figure. That is a right I was given by the people of Laikipia County. I want it to be understood very clearly. view
• 31 Jul 2013 in Senate: Taking into account that we may have done a lot of work, that is for my good friends to go along with me. Yes, we have done a lot of work. But if we asked ourselves some questions before these papers were prepared, would we behave the way we have behaved? I would have wanted to be in a committee where the decision to give Laikipia County Kshs2.5 billion is made. I would have wanted to be there and be able to dispute whether the figure is more or less.
