• 5 May 2016 in National Assembly: I remind my good friend, the Leader of the Majority Party, that it is not the first day he lost a Bill on the Floor of this House. There was a Bill when we were shooting down the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) Bill. We thought that they were not equal to the task. He stood firm and ground and we floored him.

(Dr.) Ottichilo, but I am not very sure that someone who has undertaken very basic training in security matters for a week or two will be better suited to be given this recognition.
