• 28 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I wish to support and hope that this committee expedites the work they are supposed to do so that we do not extend time. By 10th October 2017, we should hit the campaign trail and join the rest in campaigning for the President after all the money will have been allocated and the process should go on well. view

• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Whereas I have no doubt we all have very good things to say about the composition of the Chairpersons’ Committee, I also know that under Standing Order No.16, we do not really have any mandate to change this panel.

• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Therefore, in the interest of time and considering that most of us, if not all of us, support the membership of the panel, I beg to move that the Mover be now called upon to reply. Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is so that we are able to move to other business of the day. I thank you. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to take this chance to congratulate you for taking the seat after just being incorporated into the Chairperson’s Panel. I take the privilege to second the Motion. It is as straightforward as the Mover has said. Despite the calendar being provided for in the Constitution, we have the capacity and the liberty to bring it to this House and amend it accordingly.

• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: If you look at the way it has been put in the schedule, you will realise that it has considered the very busy schedule for Members. It has considered that since you need to be in the constituencies, sometimes you need a short recess. You also need a long recess, especially in December, to bond with your family and take time off parliamentary duties.

• 9 May 2017 in National Assembly: Asante sana, Mhe. Naibu Spika wa Muda kwa kunipatia nafasi ya kujadili kama wenzangu kuhusu mambo yanayoadhiri maisha yetu hasa bei ya unga na bidhaa nyingine ambacho bei zake zimepanda. Wananchi wanapokosa chakula watakosa mahitaji mengine kama dawa na maji. Tunaweza kuangalia bei ya unga peke yake lakini wananchi wamekosa hata pesa za kulipia matibabu. view

Hatujui kama tumeishiwa kabisa na mahindi. Inastahili tuweke mikakati ifaayo. Hili jambo la kuwe ka mikakati si geni kwa nchi yoyote. Hata kwenye Bibilia watu walikuwa wanaweka mikakati ya chakula siku hizo. Kwa mfano, wangehakikisha kwamba wako na chakula kwa magala yao yakutosha miaka saba. Sisi Wakenya tunafanya nini? Kila siku tunalia njaa. view
