• 9 May 2017 in National Assembly: this will be through this Finance Bill. It should not be lost to Kenyans that the state in which our economy is in currently, with inflation at 11.5 per cent despite promises and commitment by the Jubilee Government to maintain inflation at between 2.5 per cent and 7 per cent, is really a culmination of the failed promises of this failing Jubilee Government. When we hear about of SGR we think more about the Standard Gauge Railway than about the Strategic Grain Reserves that this country is supposed to maintain. We are being treated to this discussion that we have ... view
• 9 May 2017 in National Assembly: Kenyans can no longer continue living in these kinds of conditions. Yet, what we get from Jubilee is promise after promise and shifting blame. view
• 9 May 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I plan to table it as an exhibit. view
• 9 May 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, apart from just the cost of food, we are also facing a very serious shortage of water. A Kenyan living in the current economy does not know what to spend their money on. Are you going to buy unga or water which many Kenyans especially in urban areas and even in rural areas have to now buy very expensively? The other day when the Right Honourable Raila Odinga spoke about capping rent, he got a rebuttal from the Deputy President saying that “Nyumba si yako. Wewe hujaijenga . Wewe hujui rent utaweka namna gani .” But we need ... view

There are many interventions within this Finance ... view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. When the Chairman of the Committee on Delegated Legislation spoke earlier, he asked this House what the spirit of this Special Sitting is. He answered himself by saying that he was very well prepared to move the Election Campaign Financing Regulations. This is not a House of poker; this is not a House of deceit; this is not a House of karata; this is not a House of potea pata, but this is a House of rules and order. The Chairman of Delegated Legislation is a serious lawyer and a very senior one at that. I ... view

• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, when I walked in, I found many things going on with regard to my very able organizing secretary who is supposed to be working well under me. But I found him under somebody else. He was under serious duress. So I asked him, “My brother, you talk quite a lot, kumbe hakuna nguvu ?” Then he said the person over him had a lot of meat and so, he was holding and finding meat everywhere. view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: It was a real tragedy. I am really sympathetic and I am sorry for the pain. In fact, when he woke up from there, his mouth had a little swelling, but he had to dust himself up. view
