• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you so much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute. I want to bring an element that view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Osoro has mentioned. He has said that there are some positions that the youth cannot hold because of lack of experience. How can we pass the baton of leadership to another generation, if we do not give our youth the opportunities to gain experience? You get experience after you have been given an assignment to do! view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Recycling senior members is the problem we have in this country. They have experience and education. By recycling them from one commission to another and from ambassadorial position to a commission will not grant our youth time and opportunities to gain experience. Though we support the list, we should remember that the youth need to be given an opportunity no matter how big the position may be. They can gain experience so that in future they take over. view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: We have affirmative action which favours the marginalised, minorities and the little educated. If we go by educational qualifications in this country, there are some areas we will not recruit people from because of lack of academic qualifications. We need to balance. So, it is good when my brother says that all these people have excelled in academia, but we should have affirmative action. view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Affirmative action cares for everybody. You may be having a diploma or a degree certificate with experience and other factors that can make you a leader or can make you contribute to an assignment you have been given. I support the list but let us give a signal to our youth… The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 29 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to add my voice on this Bill. First of all, I would like to thank the Senate for taking its time to come up with this Bill so that we do not have confusion in handing over during the time of an incoming and outgoing governor. There is an issue that is very sensitive that the ad hoc committee that will organise the assumption of office will have to deal with. It is the issue of gender. Most of the people who have been appointed as chief officers are ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I just want to add my voice on what already has been spoken. There is what we call legacy in leadership terms. Legacy is what you will be remembered for while you are on earth. We want this House to be remembered in history that in 2018, the 12th Parliament passed a Bill that changed the history of Turkana. We will be remembered after we have left. Our grandchildren will be told that when you are father or your mother was a Member of Parliament, they made this Bill come to reality which has ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: We are supporting this Bill not because of women but our children and grandchildren who will come after us. That is so that when we leave this place, we leave a legacy behind. view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On the issue of respect to our counterparts, the ladies, we are equal when we are here; whether you were nominated or elected. You must have gone through a process. That is why you are in this House. We have to give respect to whoever is in this House. That is why we call it the august House. It is a respected House. Nobody can come here without doing something very important either in their party, nation, village or county. You will be here when you have done something very important. You have been recognised as a leader whether you ... view
