• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. At the outset, I would like to say that I know personally Mr. Noordin Mohamed Haji as a man of high integrity and somebody who is capable of serving in this office. Having served as a State Counsel, I can vouch that this is a very important office that needs to be revolutionised because we need to transform the work of the DPP which has been wanting. view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I hope Mr. Noordin is going to ensure that the youth who were beaten and some killed when we were resisting, just before the golden handshake which I now support, are recompensed. There are families whose members were injured. We need investigations to be carried out in this country so that the brutality of police officers is brought to an end. I hope Mr. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Noordin will ensure that some of the officers are arrested as an example to show to the rest of the Kenyans. view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: In Kisii County, in the last six months, so many young girls and women have been murdered. For example, the recent case is the murder of a young girl in Hon. Tongi’s constituency of Nyaribari Chache. The girl was murdered and burnt with acid. Despite several reports that we have made, nothing has been done. Another young girl in Ogembo was murdered mysteriously and nobody has been brought to book. I hope that Mr. Noordin, being a person of integrity and experience, will ensure that the violent murder of many young girls that is happening in this country is brought ... view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: In conclusion, as we go into the period of the handshake that I welcome, I hope that the President and the Right Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga are going to lead this country to the necessary unity that we want; a unity of purpose and reconciliation of our people. I beg to support. view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity so that I may also support this Motion. As the Member for Kisii County, let me also join my colleagues in thanking the President - in the spirit of “the handshake” - for appointing John Morangi Omenge. John Morangi Omenge is a distinguished Kenyan and a man of high integrity. I am very sure that he will do an excellent job as the Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining. We know that there are many issues facing the mining industry that have not yet been resolved, particularly ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. At the outset, let me thank Hon. Sossion for bringing this very important Motion to this august House. I rise to support it. There can never be something more important than discussing the welfare of teachers. In this country, teachers are the most downtrodden people. For years, they have been suppressed by the Jubilee Government. They have never been paid their dues. When it comes to the question of insecurity, it shocks me that the Jubilee Government can be so busy killing children with ... view

• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: This is unacceptable! While I do not condone that we should move teachers from North Eastern, where their lives are at stake, I think they should be moved until a solution is find. I feel sorry for the young children who do not have access to knowledge right now because of the many teachers that we have lost in North Eastern. This is a serious issue. It is an issue that the Jubilee Government should not take as a joke. They should, by now, have taken serious measures to bring the insecurity in North Eastern to an end. Mothers and ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I want to conclude by stating that the lives of teachers should not be put at risk. As I said earlier on, over 50 teachers have died in the last three years and that is unacceptable. I beg to support. view
