• 24 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this time. Let me take this opportunity to apologise to Madam Speaker before she leaves for giving her a hard time earlier on. I did not intend to, but being a person who is keen on justice, I believe that even when the majority have their way, the minority must have their say. That is all I wanted to say. I wanted to raise a procedural issue which I was not given a chance to. I will get a chance to raise it at a later date. I support this Sessional ... view
• 24 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: somebody who gets about Kshs60 million for infrastructural development of 300 schools with somebody else who gets the same Kshs60 million and has no school? The circumstance that my brother, the honourable Member has just gone through is unfortunate. One of the challenges he has is that he cannot build a school because there is no land. What about me? I have so much land for schools but no money. We must find a balance so that places that need more money for infrastructural resources get it. For areas like Dagoretti South, the Government must compulsorily acquire some public land. ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am actually perturbed by the Statement coming from the TSC. The reason I am perturbed is, usually, when there is any form of violence against young girls or women, they are then made the culprits. That is even when it is period shaming. view
• 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: The facts are out there. We know that this girl was shamed by the teacher. What is happening are claims that the mother was an alcoholic and the father was absent. So, what if the father and mother are alcoholics? Half of people in the country are alcoholics. They do not commit suicide because they are alcoholics. There are many people who are alcoholics. Even most of us in this Parliament have alcoholics in our families. We have not committed suicide. view
• 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: I am requesting the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNHCR) to go to that school, undertake independent investigations and sue whoever is responsible. If the school is responsible, sue the school! If the ministry has not provided sanitary pads which we passed in the Budget, sue the ministry! We are not going to have our girls shamed because of a natural thing like having periods. Maybe, as Members of Parliament (MPs) and symbolically, women MPs, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: should come here with blood behind so that people can normalise having periods. It is very normal. We cannot be shamed for what is normal. Otherwise, we will soon be told to leave our breasts at home! Periods are like our breasts. It is part of our body. Let us not shame girls for naturally occurring things. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view

• 18 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to say that I support. Both Houses support devolution. Because we support devolution, let us talk to each other and not at each other. I would also want to encourage the Senate that because they know that the Constitution does not give them authority, let them make amendments to have the authority they require. I also want to encourage the National Assembly that when we have that authority, let us be magnanimous in the way we exercise our authority. I also want to encourage the national and county governments to enhance revenue ... view
