• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: I am on a point of order! We need to appreciate when a Government does something which is equitable for the whole nation, so that we do not have to go to what Sen. Wamatangi is asking for because this might bring up other issues. In 2013 when this Government came into power, how many schools were connected in Kakamega, for instance? Maybe very few. So, we take responsibility but for the period that the Government is in power and authority--- This shows just how equitable the Jubilee Government has been under the Constitution. We should not be misleading the ... view
• 29 Jun 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are discussing a very serious issue. In my estimation, it is wrong to polarize a country along party lines because you claim to be a Government in waiting. Let us look at this list logically because we are misleading the people we represent. In Siaya County, out of 665 schools, only three have not been connected.

• 15 Jun 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. I do not know, but to be candid with you, I suspect that there appears to be a technical problem. The bell rang longer than it should have and so we could not start the procession before the bell stopped ringing. That is the only reason that I came in when I came in. I hope that satisfies you. This is an important question that you have raised because we cannot have arbitrary time for starting sessions. view
