• 21 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I beg you to tell off the Senator for Kakamega County, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. He is extremely mischievous. I issued a statement yesterday which was covered in The Standard saying that the only people that I need for me to win the governor’s seat in Meru are not witchdoctors. I need the voters and blessings of God. I therefore invite the Senator to read my rebuttal statement in TheStandard yesterday. I do not think that those farmers require the intervention of witchdoctors to get fertilizer in this country. view
• 21 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, where we come from, it matters. Maybe where you come from, that would not matter.

• 14 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was talking about the privilege of serving with the late Sen. Boy Juma Boy as MPs in 1992 when he was the Chief Whip of KANU. He made life very difficult when we were in the Opposition. However, over time, I came to know him with Sen. Leshore here. We became friends.

It is incumbent upon you to make a ruling regarding the Motion that Sen. Orengo was moving. You have said that because Sen.
