• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank you very much. At the outset, allow me to congratulate my brother, Hon. Silvanus Osoro, who has come up with this Motion. Hon. Osoro is a very dear friend of mine although lately he has been pondering to the wrong side of our political history that has consequently made my President very nervous and angry. However, I congratulate you for bringing this most incisive and timely Motion. The Motion on development and implementation of curriculum for our dear pupils and students is very important. If anchored into law, this can be a way of ... view
• 9 May 2019 in National Assembly: I thank you, Chair. I am on my feet to oppose this amendment by my dear friend, Hon. Anthony Oluoch. It is true that lawyers have a reputation. It is true that some of them do a better job at scrutinising and interrogating matters. But on this matter touching on national cohesion, there is absolutely no reason why we must incorporate lawyers in this. Just as my senior, Hon. Mbadi has said some of the lawyers sitting in various commissions or committees have really disappointed this nation. If we are going to take that trajectory on such an important commission, ... view
• 8 May 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. In the spirit of brotherhood, I will donate a minute to my brother, Hon. Otiende, with your permission. I support the rejection of this Bill. Going forward, both the Senate and the National Assembly must work in tandem for anything to be made into law.

• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand guided by your invocation of Standing Order No.42 (b). I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government the following Question by Private Notice. (i) Is the Cabinet Secretary aware that motorcycle riders, commonly referred to as view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: riders, are required to acquire driving licences, insurance covers and other relevant permits by 1st May, 2019? (ii) Is the Cabinet Secretary further aware that various government institutions and agencies, amongst them the NG-CDF, National Government-Affirmative Action Fund (NG-AAF) and the Youth Fund, are currently engaged in facilitating the riders in the acquisition of the documents as well as offering them training? (iii) Could the Ministry consider extending the deadline to enable the riders acquire the documents so as to cushion them from economic desperation and misery which is likely to affect them after the deadline? view
• 7 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I thank you. As for me, I would want to come with a hybrid argument of both matters of law and matters of fact. Even though we have been allowed to delve into a matter that is yet to be adopted as a motion before this House, allow me, therefore, to also reiterate some of the things that I have heard from my colleagues here. The pleadings or recommendations of this Report that I have had a rare privilege of going through are actually based on solid ground. The commissioners together with members of the secretariat were actually ... view
