  • 15 Feb 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, we need to be very careful with the Constitution. You have been here with me for three terms. Remember in the 11th and 12th Parliament, we passed very bad laws. The first was the Security Laws (Amendment) Bill and the other one was the Finance Bill. It came from the retired President. Later on, we have seen and blamed ourselves that the laws we passed at that time were not good. Our President has requested us to amend and insert. It is a test to us as Members of Parliament to go through those requests. If there ... view
  • 23 Nov 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to also speak. I have been away for a very long time, but I am now back. I thank the Members who stood with me during that bad time. Land is very important to this country. We live because of food and water. Many people in this country are starving because of where they live, like our brothers and sisters in Turkana and North Eastern. There are no rains there. I concur with Hon. Mbadi’s contribution. There are people in this country who own thousands of acres of land. There ... view
  • 23 Nov 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am back after having been away for a very long time. I want to speak about the NG-CDF because it is the most cost-effective Fund. It has changed the lives of children from poor families because they could not afford to go to school. As we speak right now, there is a problem of hunger in Turkana. The NG-CDF has managed to take children to school despite the many problems. view
  • 23 Nov 2022 in National Assembly: When I became the Member for Sirisia Constituency there were 91 primary schools and almost of all of them were mud-walled. The children used to carry cow dung to smear on the walls. So, with the help of the NG-CDF Committee, I managed to build permanent classrooms for almost 68 schools. Sometimes I think the people who are instigating removal of the NG- CDF are not normal. view
  • 23 Nov 2022 in National Assembly: I was so proud while driving along Uhuru Highway to see about 28 school buses. I even told my bodyguards and driver to look at them yet there are people out there saying that the NG-CDF should be removed. Eight of the buses had been written ‘Fully funded by NG-CDF’. I was very proud as a Member of Parliament. Children from poor families have benefited a lot because some of them receive full bursaries. For example, in my constituency every year, I give full bursaries to 61 bright students from poor families as scholarships. Without the NG- The electronic version ... view
  • 23 Nov 2022 in National Assembly: CDF they would not afford to go to high schools or universities. Now, many of them have gone to universities courtesy of the NG-CDF. As a country, every time we have problems, we blame ourselves as Members of Parliament because we are the law makers. I have been in this House for three terms and the NG-CDF problems occur every term. They have removed the NG-CDF yet we are the law makers. This is now the time - and let it be the last time - for us as a House to make sure that we amend the laws. Let ... view
  • 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. First, I thank you very much for guiding us in this House. You have stood with us and protected us from people from outside this House. You have shown that you are the father of this House. I thank you most sincerely. My family and I would like to thank you for standing with me during the time I was jailed. I could call from remand prison and speak with you. I will never forget that. It is not easy for a Speaker to speak to someone in custody. I pray for you and ... view
  • 24 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute to this. view
  • 24 May 2022 in National Assembly: I just want to comment on what the Member for Emurua Dikirr Constituency has just contributed. He is my friend. It is me who was jailed for 74 years and it is something that cannot be rejoiced in this House because the Public Investments Committee is a very corrupt Committee. I was jailed because of corruption of the Members of the Committee. I did not steal. view
  • 24 May 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, give me time because he rejoiced when he said that I was convicted for 70 years because of their stupid recommendation. I am not happy. view
