• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: I think I will withdraw the word “cheating” and replace it with the word “lying”. view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: I withdraw. I think the right word here is actually misleading. view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: That is a logical word hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Yeah. Thank you, Temporary Deputy Speaker. I think, just to support this Report again, one thing that we are saying is that the Level 5 hospitals belong to specific counties. They belong to those specific counties. The other counties will not have a say over the same Level 5 hospitals. However, I support this Motion because of one thing, which is that those Level 5 hospitals belong to specific counties. However, you as a Member of Parliament, when you are sick, you do not know where you will be admitted. You might try to trace that specific Level 5 hospital ... view

• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, to finalize, I want to inform this House that Turkana County has been marginalised for 50 years. The problems that we are solving now would have been solved 50 years ago. So, I want to inform my colleagues who think that Turkana County has been allocated a lot of funds that they are wrong. We can exchange counties. You can come to our county and we can go to yours so that you can suffer. view
• 23 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: You will suffer because of the problems that we are facing now. We never wished to be where we are now. So, I really urge my colleagues that although oil has been discovered there, it will not solve all the problems we are facing. So, when you see some funds being allocated to Turkana County, do not wish to be poor. Be satisfied with your condition. view
• 3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Report of the Mediation Committee. The nation is comprised of counties. We all belong to counties. We are seated here as Members of Parliament but at the end of the day we have to go back to our counties. The way we organise ourselves in the counties also determines our integrity in the National Assembly. view
