• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Article 43(1)(c) stipulates that being free from hunger is one of the of the basic rights. Is it in order for the Members of Parliament to give the view that people who have gone hungry and have registered in refugee camps just because the State failed in its mandate to secure food for them cannot get back their citizenship? Is that in order? view

• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is a reality that there are Kenyan Somalis. It is also a reality that there are also Somali refugees in this country. The presence of Somali refugees should not be an excuse to curtail the rights of native Somalis, who have all the rights like any other citizen of this country. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the predicament that has befallen the Kenyan Somalis is as old as history. It is as old as marginalisation.

• 25 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: The recurrence of drought used to be after every eight to four years initially, but today the timelines and the frequency with which drought recurs have been reduced to nearly two if not one year. That is an indication of how our environment is being mismanaged. It shows the extent to which anthropogenic activities are taking a toll on livelihoods and entirely the environment.
