• 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. But before I do that, on behalf of the people of Kajiado North and Kajiado County, I want to mourn Dr. Joyce Laboso, the Governor of Bomet County, and Hon. Ken Okoth, the Member for Kibra Constituency. They were great sons and daughters of this country. They have died of cancer that has killed many Kenyans.

• 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: In supporting this Motion, the Office of the Auditor-General is like any office in this country.
