• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Speaker, Sir. view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I have risen to second the amendment, hon. Speaker. view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, sir, it is important to get some guidance from you; earlier on when the Chair of my Committee, the hon. Ayub Savula Angatia, was making his remarks, he made a very serious allegation to the effect that Committees--- view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I stand guided, hon. Speaker. I will for now comply, but I will ask you to allow me to give some contribution thereafter. Hon. Speaker, I stand to second the amendment for the reason that I have been a member of this Committee and it is manifestly clear - it is clear beyond any reasonable doubt - that one Prof. Japheth Micheni Ntiba does not qualify to be appointed as a Principal Secretary in the Republic of Kenya on account--- view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, that remark is unwarranted and basically shows how low we have sunk as a House. I know sometimes this House can amaze you because of the calibre or the kind, of people you come across. Hon.

• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I beg to second the Motion on adjournment of debate that is before the House. view
• 11 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support the original Motion as amended. I thank the Committee on Budget and Appropriations for having done a fairly good job. view

• 11 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I also take note of the fact that the Committee took cognizance of the public demand that a key road in my constituency, that is Ugunja-Ukwala Road be tarmacked. I am very happy that the Committee took note of that fact and I only hope that the Ministry responsible will do the necessary and have the road tarmacked. If that is done, it will open the great town of Ugunja to business opportunities from Siaya and Busia through Nyando and Lela. view
• 11 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I would like to say that there is still room for improvement in terms of money allocated to the counties. Of course, that can happen gradually if the counties develop the requisite capacity to absorb more funds. view
