• 16 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Until today, nobody has ever told me why I do not have an office. I have lied far too many times to my constituents. Some of them think that I do not want to tell them where my office is. I think I am happy today. I hope your ruling works so that at the end of the month, we have an answer. If it does not, could we just be getting information on what is going on? I want to put this to the Commission because they seem to be very causal about what they have been assigned to ... view
• 10 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to thank hon. Lentoimaga for asking the House to adjourn to discuss this very important matter that touches on our country. I want to dwell very specifically on the Baragoi Massacre. The genesis of the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 10 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Baragoi Massacre is a very sad thing for our country. We all know what happened on that fateful day. Very noble people, from across our great Republic, went after bandits; tribal criminals, who had stolen livestock to try and recover it. What happened is very sad. They were ambushed and 50 plus of our great men, in the service of our country, were killed. Not only did these people kill these great men, who were family members, brothers and relatives to many of us, but they also took their firearms. They took tonnes of assortment of arms and ammunition. Today, ... view
• 10 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: It makes me wonder whether there are some special people in this country. I know there are elections, the Government needs votes and maybe that is why it does not want to discuss that issue. Again, we cannot rule by rigging votes when innocent Kenyans, the 50 plus officers, have been killed. That is not enough. The HK16 and the other guns are looking at very innocent children, women and the innocent lives of the Samburu and the Pokot tribes. We know where those people go. I am sorry to say this and I am not a tribalist, but we ... view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the nomination of Mr. Muhoro. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, being in the Finance Committee, I have had a chance to interview this man. Apart from having an impeccable resume, in terms of both the period he has served this country through the Public Service and academic standing, there are other good attributes in this man that we should consider. I want to speak to the person of Mr. Muhoro in that perspective. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Looking at his resume, Mr. Muhoro is a philanthropist. He actually supported several kids through their education. I was so impressed because one of the kids that appeared in his resume is not somebody from the Central region. He is a Maasai boy. For someone to go out of his way to look for a Maasai boy who is herding goats or ship down in the valleys, take him to school and see him through his education; he must be a true Kenyan. I do not care about the region he comes from. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, whenever I go home, I interact with Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) of Samburu, and something comes up all the time. They talk about being in Committees like the ones we have, and vetting people who have been nominated for county appointments. One thing that is coming out very clearly is that those guys vet people who are very junior, in terms of their job descriptions but who end up earning a lot of money, compared to what MCAs earn. I had to ask Mr. Muhoro that question, and he impressed me. I asked him what ... view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: There was something good in him in saying that if he were the appointing authority, he would have made sure that the regional balance requirement was implemented. Therefore, Mr. Muhoro is a good guy. Let us look at him as an individual, and not in terms of what he is being suspected of. With those remarks, I beg to support. view
