• 17 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I will not take 15 minutes. I support the Motion and request all of you to support it so that we can begin to prepare for our elections. Thank you, Hon. Speaker and happy New Year. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I do not want to interrupt my good friend Daktari, the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Health. The Report she is attempting to move is talking about American military forces in the Departmental Committee on Health. We are in a Special Sitting of Parliament. This is how we pass bad laws for our country because nobody is even interested. I have had a casual look at that Report. It authorises the American military to do some research in our country. We need time to read it and not in a Special Sitting. This is bio-technology. We cannot ... view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this is why we are here and we are here unnecessarily. Hon. A.B. Duale must not and should not think that we Kenyans are fools! What is he talking about? Is there a Bill before this House? The Leader of the Majority Party has even a Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill which has been tabled before this House. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: You cannot do something so substantial to any existing law or a new law without public participation. Nothing has been published for the general public or even for Hon. Members to look at. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I plead with you not to allow anybody to misuse the law-making organ or body in this country to make wrong laws. The clauses he is proposing to amend, Hon. Chepkong’a and Hon. Kaluma had amendments to them during that debate. That is what he now purports to raise hypocritically. Hon. Chepkong’a had very good amendments and this side said, “ Baba amesema” and the other side said “Uhuru amesema.” It is not six months yet. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: The Anti-Doping Bill which he is referring to and which I am on a point of order on came back here because the President sent it back. It had issues. This is an issue that we cannot treat Kenyans to a couple of days before Christmas. It is unnecessary and uncalled for. I have spoken to the Members of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. The things Hon. Chepkong’a was telling us in the Kamukunji have not gone before them. These are all your Members, Hon. Speaker. You are our father here. Members of the Departmental Committee on ... view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Justice and Legal Affairs are saying that they have no idea of what Hon. Chepkong’a is talking about. view
• 20 Dec 2016 in National Assembly: Whatever Hon. A.B. Duale has brought before this House is what he was debating in funerals. He is misusing his power which is constitutional to bring us here. I beg and plead with you to give Kenyans Christmas. Let these Members go home and we build consensus. There is enough time for Hon. Chepkong’a to resolve the issues if they are there. view
