• 12 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: ensure that NSSF is really protected. We have to recognize that it is one of the biggest funds in this country which ensure that people who retire get a good landing.

• 12 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we also have the Competition Act. It has been, sometimes, very difficult to implement it in this country. You will find that even if we say that we discourage destructive competition, some of the competitors have been driving others away and it has been very difficult to net them.

• 12 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: I end by saying I support and urge the whole House to do so. Thank you. view
• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This road which starts from Mau Summit to Kisumu has really taken time. It is now nearing completion, but there are pertinent issues which seem not to be addressed properly. I want to seek clarification from the Chairman on them. view
• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: One of the issues is that most of the shopping centres that include Kedoga, Chepseon and Brooke have big trenches which have been dug by the contractor along the road. The contractor has not created parking bays for lorries, and this is posing danger to the road users. view
• 6 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Secondly, I would like to know whether in the contract, they took into account lighting for the shopping centres. This is because most of the contracts countrywide include lighting. view
