• 5 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, the further amendment to the amendment proposed by Sen. Kagwe appears to be a bit technical. Could Sen. Orengo explain to us in simple terms what his amendment means before we vote on it? What does it mean? view

We have been put in a situation where even poor people have to pretend every weekend that they are very rich people.

• 9 Apr 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I know this is a very important Bill and this is the only chance that Senators have to speak on the budget making process. However, I am worried that some of us will not have a chance to speak to this important Bill because of time constraints. Could you consider reducing our time to five minutes so that as many of us can contribute? view
