• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: We had some agreements. One of them and which I think I must repeat, was that we want to guide the country peacefully with little noise. I want to plead again with the Leader of the Majority Party whose Motion I am supporting that, please, may we make a departure from the noise of last year so that we can bring tempers in this country down. view
• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I personally made a New Year’s resolution. I thought in the last two years, I have been so noisy. So, I have been walking away from the cameras. So, I want to plead with the Leader of the Majority Party that these cameras--- Already, you saw with the parties--- view
• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you are right. You could not have put it much better. But I was talking about the kind of noise usually made by Sakaja and Aden Duale! So, I want to plead with them, on a light note, to cool down! The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am saying that let us have a new order in the new year in a way that we can bring the temperature of the country down. We said in our meeting that there are so many things which are wrong with the new Constitution. We want to take a bipartisan approach in correcting some of the mess which we think will not let this country do any development. view
• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to plead with my colleagues in the House that some of the mess in the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, are things which will affect us directly. I want to plead with Members to put the country first so that we can achieve what the original intention of Constitution-making was. view
• 11 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, therefore, I support the Motion and welcome all of us back. Thank you. view
• 5 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. First of all, let me apologise for walking in and attempting to want to talk. I did not mean to offend you. Hon. Speaker, the matter that you have just dealt with is important but I think that there is one thing which has been omitted or included in this discussion. I like your guidance and I like particularly the submissions by Members, particularly Hon. Metito ole Katoo although I was watching from outside. The issue of decorum is a must if we want to conduct business but I wanted to take this opportunity to ... view
• 5 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I want to plead with you as our Speaker to address us as leaders. This is particularly the Leader of Majority Party. The tone of his voice offends half of this country. view
• 5 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: It is offensive and we cannot take it lying down. There is only one Leader of Majority Party in the House and he is the leader of all of us. We have to cross that line as a country. Hon. Speaker, Sir, you remember less than five years ago Kenyans were butchering each other. This Constitution which has created these numerous seats was passed when people were not even greeting one another in this Chamber. We had to talk. Hon. Speaker, I was with you and Hon. Duale last week burying our dear friend, Hon. George Thuo. We had to ... view
• 5 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: The tone of his voice is not guiding this country to Canaan. I want to plead with him as my friend that nothing stops him from inviting hon. Nyenze and going for a cup of tea which is free for them there. Just have it. If they cannot, they can walk into Mr. Speaker’s Office and have tea, agree and laugh and we will all be laughing at one another. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I really want to plead with you to help us in that regard. Thank you. view
