• 22 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: that really the “ayes” have it or the “nays” have it. In the case here, I have a feeling that the Chair has--- view
• 22 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Actually, my opinion is not contrary. I am supporting the deletion of this provision in the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill. You know when we sat in the last Parliament to come up with the TA and gave it three years, actually it was after lengthy discussions and we needed an independent body to spearhead the devolution, especially the transition to the devolved system.

• 16 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: o: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I thought the way things had gone, I would wait to raise this point of order at this stage. If you strictly read the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) Statements are actually sought from chairpersons.

• 16 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: The Jubilee policy is to retain the soldiers in Somalia while the CORD policy is to withdraw the soldiers. When you have a CORD Member giving a Statement--- If I was to give that Statement, I would have said our soldiers should leave Somalia tomorrow, yet I would be answering on behalf of the Government.
