• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The principle may sound good, but the practice is impossible. What will you say the population of Nairobi is both in the morning and evening? So, will the data change in the morning and evening? Let people be counted where they live. It will be impossible to ascertain origin and residences. Do not say you are from Nyalgunga if you live here. I oppose this amendment. view
