• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. Police officers are among public servants who are poorly paid and maintained. I had a chance to visit a relative of mine who lives in some tent near the country bus stop. I found that he was staying with his wife and another officer who also has a wife in that one roomed tent. So, two policemen were living with their wives in the same room. So, at times, they may have to compete on how they perform. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, what a ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: This problem is country-wide. I know that those people who are sent to hardship areas have additional problems.

• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: and accommodation for police officers. Whether in Nairobi, Kisii, Murang’a or elsewhere, they are getting a very raw deal. The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) had reduced our salaries. I wish they had given that amount to the police so that they could be better remunerated. In current times, with the inflation and high cost of living, a policeman should not earn less than Ksh50,000. If he is not housed, he should not be given less than Ksh20,000 for housing. Then we can look at their activities. Sometimes, when a policeman tells you nisaidie na chai, he really means it ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: . You know we have power to do that. The Budget can be brought here and when we see the allocation to the Police Force is not adequate, we can return it to the National Treasury and tell them to speak with us first before bringing it back here. I am sorry to say this as the Deputy Leader of the Majority Party. But, we must take care of Kenyans and especially our police officers who take care of the security and safety of Kenyans. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute to this important Motion. I can now see that my student has picked from me. He is a patriot. I was out of the country when our two leaders met. When I saw the news on the Cable News Network (CNN), I went back to the bar and took a whole bottle of wine to celebrate the fact that our two leaders have, at last, put the interests of the country ahead of their own personal interests. For a second time, Hon. Raila Odinga has demonstrated to this country ... view

• 28 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this important appointment. Kenya’s economy is based on agriculture, but in the last few years we have not demonstrated that we really value that base of our economy.

• 28 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: towards agriculture is very little compared to the contribution made by agriculture to this economy. For example, the planting season started yesterday when it started raining in most parts of the country. It started raining in the Rift Valley, Nyanza region and some parts of the Central region. I was inquiring this morning and I got information about rain in Kenya. Subsidised seeds and fertilisers have not been given to farmers yet we expect to have food security in this country. I know this Professor will bring some change in that ministry. I am sure because I have been a ... view
