• 8 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, this is a co-operative society that went under. It does not exist anymore. However, the liquidator will peruse the records that were held by the society. When they finish the liquidation process, they will give us the list. We will be interfering with the liquidation process if we ask for the list of the members at this juncture. view
• 8 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Question was on the old company. The contributors to Unito Co-operative Society also contributed in the name of the old company. view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Motion, because for one it will reduce the instances of cattle rustling in some communities in this country. You will find that the youth, who do not have money to pay dowry have to raid communities so that they can acquire cattle and marry.

This amendment will also help the girl-child in these communities to focus on education, instead of being married off early. I support. view

Clans in this country have some attachment to the forests within their regions because of maybe, some beehives which are there. Some people use them for ceremonies like the Kaya Bombo people; to give sacrifices and so taking the very thing that communities value and bring them to the Central ... view
• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view

• 1 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this amendment. This is because development should be bottom up in this country. Power emanates from the people. The power to own land and decide comes from the people. If we decide for them about their land, what will they be doing? This is about knowledge versus wisdom. There is wisdom in the lands boards which consist of the elderly in this country. This applies to the the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands and those lands without title deeds.
