• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: It is quite in order, hon. Speaker. view
• 24 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, yes, I have talked with the Chair of the Committee and agreed that instead of him just reading the Statement, or the response, as given by the Cabinet Secretary, it is good for him--- I requested an inquiry and a report containing the inquiry that he did prior to the Cabinet Secretary’s response.

Some were even physically molested, yet such people are supposed to report their cases to the same administration that actually spearheaded their eviction from their properties. You find that we are not able to give justice to the victims of crime perpetration. You also find that cases of rape and sexual abuse are rampant. A person who has been raped goes to the police and this person is a victim not a perpetrator, yet the questions and the set-up in in the ... view
• 26 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I totally agree with the Committee and also your ruling. This is because one shock for the people of North Karati and New Karati when the new boundaries were created was the realization that they had been placed in Gilgil Constituency.
