• 16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was supposed to issue a Ministerial Statement about the roles of Econet Wireless Kenya and the Kenya National Federation of Co-operatives. You have now given the new ruling, which I respect; am I allowed to go ahead, because of the concerns and the pressure from the ordinary co-operators, who feel cheated? Do I have your permission to give it? view
• 16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to thank the very many Members of Parliament, who last week contributed to this very important Bill; the SACCO Societies Bill, 2008. The points that they made are welcome.

• 9 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we all know, the SACCO movement is a critical movement for the development of this country. We all know that the poorest people in this country - and they are the majority - would not know what to do if we did not have the SACCO movement.
