• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, you know in every institution, when there is an increase… In fact in a family, when you get a new child, you celebrate.

• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I will pray for him to heal so that he does not give me competition when it comes to 2022 nominations. view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: No! No! Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. It is very true that this House was asked by the President to assist him in the fight against corruption when the names of individuals who are facing charges – in fact economic crime charges – in court came before a Committee of this House. It is right to reject their appointment so that all of us and those public officers can know that Parliament is very serious in the fight against corruption. It is funny that in other countries like what I heard in India when a train was involved in ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: not have integrity. If I were Ben Chumo, I would have walked into the Committee, excused myself and said because there are very many Kenyans who are also qualified, let me first of all clear my name in the court of law. I would have also said that let the law take its course, and if I am cleared I will be ready to serve again. view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. From your experience, you are really protecting us because I was wondering how I was out of order. I have just given an example. I think the Hon. Member was not listening carefully. There was a train that was involved in an accident and the Minister for Transport in that country resigned. Was he the driver or the captain of the train? It is because of integrity; you just want to protect your name. We really have to uphold our integrity. So, I really support this Report and I urge the House that let us stamp ... view

• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: ask ourselves a few pertinent questions. One is that even though we have installed CCTV cameras on our major highways, have they resolved the issue of traffic jams, overlapping and crimes? The second pertinent question is to which extent we are installing those CCTV cameras? Is it in the school compound, the dormitory or the bathroom? Issues such as drug peddling and immorality may happen in a place that may not have a CCTV camera installed. We are also narrowing the installation of CCTV cameras simply to crimes that are associated with rape and burning of schools. There are more ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Motion. Let me start by thanking His Excellency the President for bringing to this House for consideration three very able persons led by the proposed Chair, Hon. Florence Kajuju, who is known to many of us. She served in this House in the last Parliament not just as an ordinary Member but as the Chair of the Regional Integration Committee. This is a role she played very well with a lot of humility and ability. More importantly, she also served in the Justice and ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Human Rights and Governance. He is currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy at the Maseno University. How more inspiring can it be to see a person who is deaf who has gone this far and who the President has recognised? I really appreciate that and support Mr. Opiyo. Of course, we have the third person, Madam Lucy Ndung’u, who is known to all politicians in this country. She is a lady who is as tough as steel. She served with all manner of politicians. Many times, we took to her very difficult situations that she handled very well. I truly ... view
