• 24 Aug 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, very briefly because we have been at this for very long. I thank the leadership of the House from both sides of the divide for the leadership they have shown in this matter. I also thank the membership of the Committee. I want to respond on one issue only.

• 18 Aug 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir. Just in short agreement with the Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet and the Senate Deputy Majority Leader. The signal being sent is that we can only do business when the Bar is drawn and the doors are locked. We can only transact business when we are like prisoners, but when the door is opened we all vanish. The point that the Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet has brought out is very important, especially when it is a Special Sitting. view
• 12 Jul 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Did you hear the Senator for Mombasa say that there are other schools in the bush?

I have friends who have children who are doing very well in this School. Let me encourage the students that this year is significant for women. Even in Kenya, the only Nobel Peace Laureate has been a woman. There ... view
• 12 Jul 2016 in Senate: Bw. Spika, mimi niliishi Dar es Salaam kwa muda wa miaka mitatu. Niliishi huko nikiongea Kiswahili sanifu. Niliongea kwa Kiswahili na Wabunge. Wakati ule, Dar es Salaam hakuwa na mkuu wa serikali yeyote alikuwa akiongea kwa lugha ya Kiingereza. Kwa hivyo, wale wanafikiri kwamba wanajua Kiswahiki, hawajui Kiswahili. view
