• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Kaluma is very busy trying to distract me and yet, he is supposed to be my friend. He knows that I am an expert in matters of elections. view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, in 1997, I watched as 14 young people were killed at Uhuru Park so that we could have the Inter-Parties Parliamentary Group (IPPG) initiative. This was because some people wanted to be there. In 2007, we saw a lot of blood bath, including some people going through windows to be near power. This time, we saw people who have never been known to have participated in any demonstration other than Christian unions, sitting on tarmac road in the name of demonstrating to remove the IEBC commissioners from office. This country has gone to a level where everybody ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: I have looked very carefully at the terms of reference of this group. I have also looked and analysed some of the Members. Let me commend the two Co-chairs. They are people I have The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: worked with. I have a lot of respect for Hon. Kiraitu Murungi and Hon. James Orengo. However, some of the Members cannot meet the requirements of Chapter 6 of the Constitution. They are people who at one time left this House naked because of doing indecent things. They are people who have not one case but 10 cases pending in court. We have to lead by example. This House has to come up with better people. If you look at the credentials, some people are not known to have gone to any secondary school classroom - not even Form One. ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: I also wish to say, especially to the Leader of the Majority Party, that there are people who were de-whipped by CORD. They are independent in this House. Who is representing them here? For example, Hon. Musimba and the Member for Mt. Elgon, do not belong to any party. You read a very long list of people who were de-whipped by CORD. Those people are not represented here, and they do not have a voice. Since you do not have a voice, you will not be represented. All that we can do is to watch and wait for a report ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: To finish off, I looked at the last process very carefully. view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Before I was rudely interrupted, I was talking about--- I am not frustrated. I am a liberated person, as I said the other day. I do not have to answer to Standard Four graduates and I do not have to answer to criminals who are known to have 10 cases in courts. view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Going back to the issue of elections, let us treat our people fairly. The current IEBC can go to court and demand to go through the due process which requires that we have a tribunal. Wish-washing things here will not save us. I see a situation where some people have lost an election and are looking for an excuse to have an election which has not been held declared null and void. I am saying this with a heavy heart because this has been very consistent. In 1997, there was the Inter-Parties Parliamentary Group (IPPG) and in 2007, some people ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Let us agree on one thing: we have a country that we must all live in. It belongs to all of us and none of us should be bigger than anybody else. In any case, all of us are here as products of an electoral process that was midwifed by the current electoral process. I did not see any Member of Parliament declare that because that election was stolen, he would decline his seat. Is there any? There is none. We have not seen that. So, let us be sober. I know Hon. Kaluma to be of great credentials but, ... view
• 5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, there is grandstanding here--- view
