• 25 Apr 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the time to contribute to this Motion. Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, I wish to thank the good people of Trans-Nzoia for electing me to this House, in the most peaceful election devoid of negative ethnic considerations. You are all aware that Trans-Nzoia is multi-ethnic. To the people of Trans-Nzoia and Kenya, I pledge to diligently serve to the best of my ability, without fear or favour.

• 17 Apr 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I can now see the wisdom. But really, it should not necessarily say “where you are registered.” Really, it should be expressly mentioned that where a Senator represents a county, he has a duty and responsibility to attend. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
