• 11 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. First, I rise to support the amendment for the reason that we were recently told that we need to have an equal playing ground. How can we have an equal playing ground if the Government is not allowed to showcase what they have achieved? Secondly, in supporting the amendments, I just wish to state that people have to be given a chance to make informed decisions on what the Government has achieved, and they can only do this by being provided with the necessary information. On that ground, I support the amendment. Thank you. view
• 11 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: I wanted to rise on a point of order, but it was overtaken by events. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to support the Motion and more specifically, I wish to speak about one Hon. Patrick Mariru. This is one gentleman who is a professional and up to the task. He is the immediate Speaker for Laikipia County Assembly. I am the immediate Speaker of Kericho County Assembly. He was my colleague. I will say everything nice about Hon. Patrick Mariru. view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: As said by the Member for Gatundu North, Hon. Mariru steered Laikipia County Assembly to greater heights. He was ranked the best performing Speaker in this country. I was the second one. Therefore, I was not really bad as I came second after Hon. Mariru. In all honesty, this is a person who fits the bill. He will bring in fresh ideas to the Chairperson’s Panel. The other Members, Hon. Jessica and Hon. Omulele, were sitting in the Chairperson’s Panel previously and they have the experience needed for the job. I am sure with Hon. Soipan coming on board and ... view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Mariru is a calm and collected individual. The Member for Laikipia West was in the County Assemblies’ Governing Council. He was an imminent Member and a resource person who steered and assisted us at the inception of the county assembly. I thank the Leader of the Majority Party for seeing to it that, at least, a representative from the county assembly got a position in the Chairperson’s Panel. He is an imminent lawyer and currently doing his PhD. He has vast experience in the business of the House and in the legal profession. I am confident he will do ... view

• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise in support of the Motion by the Leader of the Majority Party. At this juncture, this country of ours is at crossroads. The election was held on 8th August 2017. The persons who feel aggrieved are the NASA fraternity. However, as the Jubilee fraternity, we have the opinion and we strongly believe that there is no vacuum in this country. The provision of the Constitution is very clear that the sitting President will become a President until the next one assumes office. The elections done on 8th August 2017 were invalidated and as such ... view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: presidency is a symbol of national unity. Nobody has any right to demean that office of the presidency. Hon. Babu Owino the Member for Embakasi East used unpalatable language. As a country, we ought to be fostering unity. We need to speak in one voice. We are all brothers of the same father called Kenya and we need to speak in one voice. On the repeat Presidential election that is to be held on 26th October 2017, we believe we have the numbers to win it and that is beyond question. What we are concerned about is that our brethren ... view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Finally, I want to comment on the issue of the UN supervising the repeat presidential election, as raised by the Member for Yatta. The Hague was provided for in law, but the issue of the UN taking part in our election processes is not provided for in any part of the law. Therefore, as the Jubilee fraternity, we cannot allow anything that is outside the confines of the law as we believe that an election ought to be conducted within the confines of the Constitution and the law view
• 13 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, first and foremost, let me take this chance to thank the lovely people of Bureti for giving me a chance to come and represent them in this honourable House. view
