• 22 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Ichung’wah must withdraw and apologise. Eastleigh is one of the biggest business hubs in this town but when he maligns their names that they do not pay taxes, when I know that he is running butcheries, tangatanga money and William Ruto’s accounts… view

• 22 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am not a landlord but as the Leader of the Majority Party and Hon. Otiende have alluded, before we proceed you need to make a ruling as the Chair. You cannot mix the Tax Laws (Amendment) Bill with cattle dip issues or add things into it. These are separate laws.

• 22 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, I would like to support this Motion. Hon. Speaker, this is a clear manifestation that Parliament is doing its job.

• 22 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: The African way of life is taking what is available, because what you do not have, you might not get. This is what the Government has provided and Parliament has also tried. If you have lemons, you make lemonade out of them. So, what the Executive has brought is a budget stating that it can afford Kshs10 billion for vulnerable people and Parliament added them Kshs3 billion. The tax cuts that we passed this morning are also important. view
• 22 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support and say that this has shot below my expectations. It is underwhelming. In the budget coming in June, because the effects of COVID-19 might take another three months, the House must rise to the occasion and come up with better approaches to the issues I have raised on social safety. view
