• 27 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: . During bursary disbursement, I use village elders because they can reach everybody in the constituency and have the required information.

They need to be paid so that they can meet their bills. I urge the Government to consider paying them as it is long overdue and to be motivated for the work they do. These people work 24 hours.

In my constituency, there is no school with infrastructure for persons with special needs. So, as a Government, we need to ... view

• 19 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. Those who came up with the idea of county governments had a very good plan and intention.

The community is happy because there are health centres in all parts of the constituency. There ... view
