• 17 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion and thank my colleague, Mr. Omingo and his team, for a job well done.

• 7 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, we have read the Memorandum December 7, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 4273 from His Excellency the President. The arguments that are used favour commercial banks, majority of which are not Kenyan-owned. A year-and-a-half ago this House discussed this matter at great length and made its decision. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move a further amendment to the amendment:- THAT, the entire Clause 16 be deleted. This means that Clause 16, sections 1, 2, and 3 should be deleted because this will be in the interest of the common man. At one point, bank ... view
