• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that we need to encourage and support the girl-child. However, let us not confuse the important issues with cultural values of our people. Let us encourage our people, whatever their cultural values, to support the girl-child. For example, if you look at polygamous homes, I know that there are many polygamous homes which have taken their children to the highest level of education.

• 24 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to contribute to this important Motion. Right from the outset, I would like to support the request by the Minister for Finance. First, we are approving the unforseen expenditure by the Government.

Over the weekend, I had a chance to travel to Nyeri and Kirinyaga districts in Central Province. I was shocked! The district where the President comes from has got ... view
• 24 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thought I was commending the hon. Member who has utilised his position very well by talking to Italy - he is the Minister for Foreign Affairs - and got the Kshs350 million. I wish I could get that money for Kitutu Chache! view
