• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Constitution of Kenya provides the President with executive authority derived from the election by the people of Kenya. Through the same Constitution, the President can delegate executive authority to the appointees that he gets to work with him. So, in every aspect, we must trust the judgement of the President because his performance will be judged depending on the people that he appoints.

• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: When you look at these nominees, the President has done a good job. We will support him and his nominees. The only thing that we would tell these nominees is that it is very easy to get these jobs through the President’s appointment. However, the President has recently led the way.

• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Can I speak on the debate? view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The reason I wanted to say something is because I am really impressed by this list. One of the nominees here, Sophie Lepuchirit, is my constituent. She happens to be the first Samburu ever to go to university. So, this is something that touches my heart.

• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: That is all I wanted to say. I wish you a Merry Christmas, Hon. Speaker. view
