• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: and positive economic impact in the society. Football in Europe, North America, Latin America and some parts of Africa is a high paying sport. Let us have academies established and then encourage our young men and women to immerse themselves in sports for their own benefit and that of our nation. Sports is also a rich source of employment. It spurs the youth into action rather than remaining idle. It is rather depressing to note that the budget allocation to the State Department for Sports, Culture and Arts is rather small. It may not suffice for the expensive endeavour. However, ... view
• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you so much for giving me this opportunity. First, I would like to send my heartfelt condolences to the family of Hon. Nyenze and the people of Kitui West. Coming back to the Motion at hand, I wish to condemn the happenings in Kimilili in the highest terms possible. Human life is sacred.

Therefore, as I support this Motion, I urge the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development to ensure that such lanes are reserved to ensure that our cities are passable. I also urge them to factor in foot bridges because so many pedestrians lose their lives daily trying to ... view
• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me take this opportunity to support the Motion in front of us. As we know, urbanisation is the way to go and at the moment, the kind of structures that we have in our urban areas leave a lot to be desired. There is need to have clear policies on urbanisation. As I speak on this, I happen to be residing along Mavoko where we have Mlolongo Town. This is a town that has just mushroomed in the last few years and it is pathetic to see the kind of services people in that area ... view
