• 3 May 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this statement was due today and it touches on the lives of many people of northern Kenya and the North Rift. This has to do with compensation and the people of those counties are waiting for the response. Remember, the post-election victims were paid very fast but these ones have suffered since 1963. view
• 3 May 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are dealing with an emergency of 900,000 people in Nandi County. Their health is at stake and you directed that the matter should be expedited. There is no programme or duty roster for sickness.

• 28 Apr 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, yes, I am seeking a clarification.He said it has taken long. What happened to the one that was built in Athi River, the Devki Group? At the same time, they have now done three factories in Kenya when the other one has done zero. So, are you saying that we have different ways of dealing with different investors in Kenya? Lastly, I invite the Committee to go and visit those sites so that they can understand the frustration that my people go through in waiting for this huge thing that does not come. view
