• 18 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I request that when you give a chance to Members sitting on the other side, you also look at our side. view
• 3 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, indeed, this is a very emotive topic. Some of us are very emotional when we talk about it. As leaders, we must be the ones to show the way. Unfortunately, since Independence, this country has taken a nosedive. It is continuing to go down instead of coming up. We have enumerated our values in the Constitution. However, we do not live by those values. We have a disease in this country whereby we churn out very good papers and legislate good laws but, when it comes to implementation, we go the opposite of our original intentions. ... view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. I support this Sessional Paper. In this country, education has been given a lot of attention. In Kenya we cannot talk of people being illiterate. Majority of us have gone to school and if we tie our national agenda to the educational standards, it will do more and we will develop faster than before. In all spheres of our development, educational factors play a very major role. I support the Motion. view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity. I rise to support this Sessional Paper considering that even at the time of creation, God created the environment before the human being. He gave us a duty to control, conquer and use it for our benefit. Unfortunately, it is like we do not take that very seriously, no wonder at the moment, we are faced with issues of global warming. It has become a concern. It should come naturally to us that we need to conserve our environment because without it, our lives cannot be sustained. I am happy that ... view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: 35 Wednesday 2nd December, 2015(A) The companies that will be extracting oil, geothermal or other minerals, should show by example. When they disturb the environment while looking for those minerals, at the end of it, they should be able to put it back as it was before. We find that the law is not strict on people who destroy our environment. People are drowning in deserted quarries because the people who dug them failed to cover them. We want to congratulate those people who mind the environment, for example, one company that was dealing with cement in Mombasa and after ... view

• 24 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order. I am wondering whether the Hon. Member is within the rules of relevance by deviating from the discussion on CDF to something else. view
• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity. Listening to my colleagues and having looked at the Bill, it is like going down memory lane because when you hear the passion with which people are debating this Bill, it tell us that we have really missed being ourselves. I know that when the colonialists came to our country, they began by telling us that our traditions, food, way of dressing, songs and everything were backward simply because they needed to generate a market for their goods. Thank God that we have a new Constitution that recognises our cultures and ... view
