• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: I remember the other day they killed a boy and slit his throat. When I reported to the police, I told them that I needed the corporal who is there to be transferred immediately because the boys who killed the other boy were released. How do you release a murderer even without taking him to court to be jailed? Therefore, I feel that it is high time that the police took action to tame such criminals, so that our people can live in peace wherever they are, wherever they live and they can work anytime they need to. view
• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you. I would like to pass my condolences and those of my family to the people of Kitui West for the loss of their Member of Parliament, Hon. Nyenze. It is indeed a big loss especially for our big brother who had been our mentor for many years. I knew Hon. Nyenze 15 years ago. I borrowed a leaf from him in order to join politics. I also used to get advice from him on what to do so that I could land here in Parliament. I am sure some of the advice he gave me contributed to my ... view

• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to express my condolences first of all to the people of Nyeri County for the loss of their governor, and also to the people of Meru County whose former Member of Parliament and a Minister passed on last week. view
• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: I would like to support this Motion which is the Adoption of Sessional Paper No. 6 of 2016 on the National Urban Development Policy. I would like to state that we need proper planning for the new urban centres because there was poor planning in the old ones like the ones that are in this city and other cities. Those who are in charge of dishing out plots gave out road sites. You find a house which is built on a road. When there is fire, engines have nowhere to pass, and an ambulance cannot pick people who are sick. ... view
• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: In this country, we need to plan for houses that are affordable to the low income earners, so that they can access them, rent them out or even build for themselves. This can only come if planning is proper. After we adopt this National Urban Development Policy in this House, it should be spread to the counties. You will find that a Member of the County Assembly (MCA) will grab land anywhere and put up a house where there was an access road to some other houses. MCAs are dishing those plots to their friends without minding what the future ... view

I am the new Member for Masinga Constituency. I thank the people of Masinga for having faith in me and electing me with many votes. My constituency has experienced a lot of difficulties especially with regard to water shortage. I know by the grace of God I will try to help the people where I can by bringing some Motions in this House so that I can be helped by the Government of ... view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: I want to congratulate you for being elected the second time to serve on the Chairman’s Panel. Through the wisdom of the panelists or the Members who have been elected to that office, we, as the new Members, will be guided in the right direction so that we can bring change in this House. The calendar that has been brought before the House for us to approve, I do not have a lot of issues with it. I know it was done in good faith. We also need time to go and speak to our people and even thank our ... view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. First, I would like to congratulate you for your nomination. Being on the Speaker’s Panel is an honour. I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I would like to speak about the ratification of the Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement, especially in line with the protection of the rivers. This treaty says that we need to protect the water so that it is not polluted and other foreign species are not introduced into that river making it inhabitable. In the same breath, I would like Kenyans to see ... view
• 27 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Therefore, I would like to support this Motion of the Cooperative Framework Agreement so that we can pass it and join the other countries that have ratified the Agreement. I beg to support the Motion. view
