• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: whom I found to be a source of advice in this House. Quite often than not, we sat with the late Hon. Waititu, and he would advise me on House procedures. Much of what I have learnt in this House came from him and the MP who spoke before me, Hon. Wamalwa, whom I consulted a lot. Because of that consultation with Hon. Waititu, I found my way to his constituency with Hon. Koinange and I learnt a lot from the good work he was doing for his constituents and, as a result, I also organized for my CDF team ... view

• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I want to support the position of the Leader of the Majority Party. The idea of a representative of the UNHCR to permanently sit in the committee is not necessary. They can be co-opted or invited to provide the expertise that is required. It is not necessary for them to have a permanent seat in that particular committee. view

• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: I want to support that position by the Chair. When such regulations are developed, they find their way into this House. That would be the appropriate time for my good friend to propose whatever she wants included in the regulations. view

• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Again, I hope Hon. Millie will not feel like we are opposing everything she is proposing. Sixty days will only give the aggrieved time to manipulate and do things that are not necessary in this country. We know that 30 days are enough. Beyond, we will be giving time for manipulation. They have been doing it. Some of us have worked in the international arena with refugees and we know that some of them come here with a lot of knowledge on how to manipulate our processes. The 30 days should be enough. view

• 16 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sen. Yusuf Haji and I interacted quite a lot in my previous engagements, especially, in seeking for peace in this region. Many may not know that part of the reason we have peace in this country is because of the contributions of the great men, Sen. Haji included. I have heard from a number of our colleagues who seem to truly believe in him and in what he wanted this country to be; a tribeless country, where people enjoy what we have been given by the Almighty God freely and without feeling discriminated. It is for that reason ... view
