• 19 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Institutions mandated to warn the Government of impeding crisis like this one has failed this country. You will only hear them reacting to media reports. Where were these institutions which are mandated to give early warning before people start dying? Where were they before this crisis got to this level? As Parliament, we need to revisit this and see whether these institutions are working properly. view
• 19 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: County governments are a disgrace to this country. We see them spend millions and billions of shillings on non-essential services, like cultural events and repair and construction of roads with no vehicles to use. This is the case and yet people are dying of hunger, and livestock is dying due to lack of water. This is shameful and we should think about it seriously. view
• 19 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: My constituency is about 7,000 square kilometres. There are only three boreholes and the population is over 400,000 people and tens of thousands of livestock. You can imagine the kind of stress which is there. We have visited Government offices numerous times. However, the response is very minimal. They are now saying they have allocated Kshs2 billion.

There are a number of employees that were injured in the fracas that ensued. It was all over the international news and local news. Those ugly scenes were disturbing.

• 6 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is a constitutional right of workers to picket and demonstrate in this country. I thought the time of unleashing GSU officers on civilians was way before the “handshake.” view
• 6 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: It is unfortunate to see that happening after the handshake. We cannot discuss this Adjournment Motion without discussing or seeing the underlying causes of this strike. We must understand what has caused this strike. The cause could be the intention of the loss-making private entity called KQ to take over KAA. It could be the handshake, which is shaking all over this country. We may never know what is causing this strike. view

• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to the Report by the Committee on the National Government Constituencies Development Fund. view
• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: From the outset, I support the Report and commend the Committee for bringing to the Floor of the House a wonderful report. view
