• 14 Feb 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I thank everybody for the wonderful suggestions. I am glad that particularly three Members from CPAIC are here.

In fact, for any leader to dare to be in a place where there is such level of violence, I would never want the Senate to be heard by Kenyans condemning people who were courageous enough to appear in the place.

However, when our leaders appear in places of danger, putting their lives in danger just to be there with their own people, it should be something that this Senate must recognise and appreciate and not condemn. I did not want that to go on record that ... view
