• 5 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I asked them why they did not tell the public, if they detected it many months ago. This issue was raised by the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government. He said that there was mercury in the sugar. The Ministry of Health did not come out with their results that there was no mercury in the sugar. As the Member for South Imenti, I was in pain because they denied Kenyans information. This Committee has really worked hard. Let me commend them. Once a Committee is engaged in investigations, we rely highly on the evidence that we ... view

The 174 samples came from Nakuru County, Bungoma County, Kiambu County, Nairobi County, Trans-Nzoia County, Kakamega County, Kajiado County and Tharaka Nithi County.

• 5 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. They said that they have already seized and locked that sugar. It cannot go out to the shelves. They have already contained that sugar wherever it is. If it is in the houses, it is under lock and key. They are ready to destroy that sugar. view
• 5 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: The Ministry of Health said that they are still continuing with sampling. They will take samples in all the counties.

• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to give my two brief comments on the two petitions if you allow me. I will start with the one submitted by Hon. Theuri, Member for Embakasi West. This issue of betting and gambling is a problem in this country, especially to the young people. As much as I support what my colleague is alluding to, unless this sector is controlled our youth will get into problems.

• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the sentiments of my other colleagues. If you do not have a PIN, you cannot be taxed in this country. Therefore, either the Chairman withdraws this amendment or we vote and defeat it. view
• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I think the Leader of the Majority Party has misled this House. Out of the betting that people do, you can bet 10 times and win once. It is misleading to tell us winnings are more than what the betting companies get. Winnings are very minimal, indeed. They are very minimal. view
