• 11 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Ekamais Lomorukai. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very important Bill by Hon. Kaluma. Hon. Kaluma is my good friend. This Bill has come at the right time. Those women and men out there who are seeing us discussing this very important Bill will be extremely happy because it takes care of the interests of every spouse, including men. Hon. Kaluma has replaced the term “wife” with the term “spouse”. That means that the interests of all spouses will be taken care of. I am a pastoralist. Pastoralists suffer a lot when a spouse passes ... view
• 2 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to add my voice. The ECD centres have a critical obligation of ensuring that our children get proper education.

If you go to places like Turkana West, Turkana North or even Loima, nomads keep moving from one particular area to even the ... view

• 16 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: It is very important for the country to see the importance of conserving wildlife in the country. I come from Turkana County, which has diverse wildlife. The entire northern and north western part of Kenya has a lot of wildlife, but one serious thing that lacks is having a workforce that takes care of all the ranches and animals in the wild. I was born in a sub-county where during my early childhood, I used to see elephants, buffalos and many other animals, but due to the introduction of illegal firearms, most of that wildlife cannot be seen today. That ... view
• 16 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Some Members have mentioned something about Lake Turkana. Lake Turkana is an important lake in this country, but there are cases in the recent past where crocodiles have taken the lives of over seven people, but the compensation element has never come out clearly. So, this important policy should take care of situations where wildlife affects human beings. We need to provide laws that will take care of the people who live within our country. view
