• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, just very briefly, the Committee did something very interesting. It never called anybody – that is the interviewing authority - to verify the facts which have been presented here. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not want to contest the fact that Dr. Maria Nzomo is a Kamba. However, that Commission is to have five members. There are three existing members one of whom is from the Eastern region of this country. The other person who is recommended, this gentleman called Simon Johnny Ndubai, I know him and he is a good Kenyan, is ... view
• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think that is frivolous because the Mover of the Motion and the Seconder alluded to the same fact. However, so that I conclude--- view
• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is also frivolous because I never referred to any province, I said Eastern region. I am a smart person. I think good! view

Even if you looked at counties, this lady, Wilfred Osimbo comes from Kakamega County. I stand to be corrected, nobody from Kakamega County has ever been appointed to any commission.

• 10 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I need your guidance. Mrs. Ngilu is a Minister in this Government. These names found their way to this House from the Executive where she sits. Is it in order for her to stand here and contradict the two Principals? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg your indulgence for a minute or two. I want to thank the Mover of this Motion because the idea of it may be good, but the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade is already seized of this issue.
