  • 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: concerned that we are trying to insulate Members of Parliament from actions that they do as Government. We are one arm of the Government. If you look at Clause 15, this is almost a standard thing that is contained in every Bill.

  • 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Finally, because I know my brother has persuaded me to speak less so that he can hopefully get an opportunity to speak, I want to challenge us as a country. I know that my colleague has mentioned the issue of Rwanda. Dr. Ochuodho who comes from my county and Mr. Oketch have revolutionized the Information Technology (IT) sector in Rwanda and done many strides.

  • 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have been writing a book which is semiautobiographical called “ The Things We Lost With Freedom ”. I can tell you that when I grew up, I went to school with many people of different tribes and yet I did not know their tribes because it was not important. But right now when you meet a person, the first thing you ask them is which part of the country they come from. Not because you think the part of the country they come from grows a lot of potatoes or has a lot of fish ... view
