• 26 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have waited until I was about to lose hope. Yesterday I waited until the time was over. I want to add my voice to what the President has given us this afternoon. It has come at the right time when Kenyans are waiting for solutions to the problems they are facing. There is a lot of disconnect in our security forces. What the National Intelligence Service (NIS) is giving out are nice reports but the problem is execution. I am requesting the President to have the NIS or information office that ... view
• 26 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: give us information, unlike through the Nyumba Kumi Intiative. There has been a lot of support from our village elders. They give information to our assistant chiefs, chiefs and District Officers (DOs). If they are given sufficient support and a token of appreciation, information will always be there for us. view
• 11 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I appreciate this time that I have been given. I am one of the Members who have been affected since I was elected. Every time I go to my constituency, the messages that I read are that such and such number of animals have been stolen or have gone to the other end. It has been painful to me every time.

• 11 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to say that the soldiers that were killed were coming from different parts of the nation. The killers never chose soldiers from Pokot, Turkana or any other place. As we speak, we are genuine that we want to support the Kenya Defence Forces to stay longer in Baringo and in all the borders of our land, right from Turkana, Samburu and everywhere, so that they can support the people. For the first time my people were telling me that they have slept in their houses, and maybe in the next three years, I will ... view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to contribute to this issue. I also want to thank hon. Nyokabi for bringing up this noble course at this time. I want to ask the Chairperson, Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology a question. My constituency was in the limelight last year when we were battling with the Press for bringing up my girls on the issue of the period of shame. It was aired on the radios and televisions that things were not good. view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: We want the Ministry to come up with a better way of distributing those items in the constituencies or districts as she has said. We want to find ways and means to reach those poor girls who are not accessing those items. At the same time, we have to realize that in the rural set up like in a county like Baringo, those girls may not even use those things because they do not have pants. At the same time, they do not have toilets to drop those things. So, we have to come up with ways and means to ... view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: As Legislators in this country, we have to come up with better ways of assisting our girls to remain in school. All the girls must miss classes for several days in my constituency every month and we have to take action. view
