• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this is, indeed, a very important Petition. I just pray that the Departmental Committee on Lands, under the Chairmanship of my friend, Hon. (Ms.) Rachael Nyamai, would expedite this matter so that the people of Tana River, especially those in the constituency of my good friend, Hon. Ali Wario, will get justice.

This is a matter of serious public interest and as clearly stated in the Election Campaign Financing Act 2013, there is a time element. However, that time element is such that the Commission is required to have published these regulations, at least, 12 months before a general election.

• 15 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: I have asked for permission from the Speaker to refer to notes on my phone, but if they insist, I will try to persevere. Let me join my colleagues in passing my deeply felt condolences to the family of my friend, Jakoyo Midiwo. I came to know Jakoyo Midiwo when he was serving his first term in this Parliament.
