• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: registered land that belongs to a community is, as I said, a giant leap forward in our Constitution. No matter what you say, the fact that trust lands are now held in trust by county governments--- I hope the governors and everybody else understands that those chunks of lands are only held in trust. Article 63 of the Constitution gives us some life because those governors belong to those communities. I want to talk on the aspect of converting community land into public and private land and vice-versa. I thank the people who brought this Bill. This provision of having ... view
• 1 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: killing our livestock, occasioning losses to everybody in the community. This is a clear example of the historical tragedy of the commons theory; that, since people think that something is for the whole community, everybody tries to keep as many livestock as possible. This Bill is enabling communities to manage grazing on community lands and even control the numbers of livestock that people should keep in order to avoid the tragedy of the commons theory that has taken our communities back in so many ways. Finally, some of us are very fearful of anything that is done by the CS. ... view
• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you very much for being fair.

• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: No. I am just thanking you for being fair and refusing Hon. Kamama to speak ahead of us because he just walked in. He is my friend, but fairness works in this House. view
• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Article 240 is one of the greatest provisions of our Constitution. The fact that the Head of State of this country is required to provide an update on the state of security in our country, at least, once a year, is probably one of the most important provisions in our Constitution. I thank the President for obeying the Constitution each year and updating us on the state of security in our nation, particularly this time when we are facing so many internal and external threats. The only useful thing that should be included in this Report ... view

• 17 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Hon. Mbadi is a good friend of mine and I have nothing against him. But is it fair for those of us who have been sitting in this House to wait for hon. Mbadi to get a second chance? When you called him the first time, he was not in. Some of us were just sitting here. I respect him and I have all the love for him, but it is not fair for all of us to sit and wait for him to run his errands and come back to the House and overtake ... view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: No, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
