• 30 Dec 2022 in Senate: I also want to congratulate Her Excellency the Governor for the way she handled herself and with a lot of decorum, speaking nothing but the truth. I want to tell the Chairperson of the Committee on Education that pastors have only one truth.

• 20 Dec 2022 in Senate: First, there is no difference between Plenary and the Committee. We need to be fair to the people of Meru, just to the people of this country and do a clean job.

• 20 Dec 2022 in Senate: The issue is about Governor Kawira. We need to be fair to her as much as we need to be fair to the people of Meru and to the MCAs who have issues. We must be trusted as a Senate. For us to be trusted, I challenge the Members who have been nominated to the Committee, they must be seen to be just, now that it looks like we are going the Committee direction.

We did not get as much as we would have gotten under normal circumstances in Meru and other places. view
