• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: When prosecutions of suspects are hardly resolved, and when matters that touch on Kenyans continue to be derailed to the extent that when the leadership of this country was being considered, some individuals who were already suspected by Kenyans ended up being in the Government? This has happened time and again, not only in this Government, but also in previous Governments. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: People of questionable character, who have not been given a chance to clear their names in court, are serving in the Government. You consider such persons innocent until proven guilty. Cases are still in court. They have not been cleared, but they are serving in the Government. I say this because, as a Kenyan, I have a responsibility and a future in this country. What would Kenyans think of us when we come here, as we did last week, and vote that we have no confidence in our view

• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, how would you expect Kenyans to believe in us? Where do we expect them to get justice from, if, we, as Members of Parliament, say we have no confidence with our institutions in this country? What do we expect of our people when their representatives have been accused of being bribed to vote for Motions, and we do not bother to clear those kinds of allegations from the public? view

• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, how do we expect to fight corruption in this country when even the common mwananchi out there is also happy bribing and receiving bribe? We, as a nation, are looking at the leadership of this country. That leadership is here with us. We cannot argue that we have lost the war against corruption in this country. There is always time and place to begin a war. I am happy today that Dr. Khalwale has chosen this House to be the place, and now as the time to begin this war. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the time and place is here with us today, then we must fight this war. We must fight this war, not because we are fighting individuals in this House, but we are fighting to regain our moral authority, which we are losing every day. Kenyans are watching us today. Kenyans have read about maize. They can read. They can ask their friends to read for them. They know the law. Today they can see who is shaming the country. They can judge who will defend corruption in this House. view
