• 19 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to add my voice to this very important Statement. In fact, I was prepared to come up with one, but was told that my colleague had already done that, and I appreciate the effort. view

• 19 Feb 2020 in Senate: May I also respond to the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Orengo, who mentioned my name. It is true that we can pray, but serious action is needed. This is because those who are spiritually upright can do their prayers, but the Government must also do its work of protecting the citizens. Let us all do our work and save the situation. Corona Virus has scared every one of us. Globally, it is affecting everyone. The story that was covered last night is quite touching.

• 18 Feb 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to this. I congratulate Sen. Kwamboka for coming up with the Statement. I stand to support this important Statement because of the situation in our country. Earlier, we spoke about the health issues in our country and the suffering that our people go through. Now that we are discussing this, when you visit prisons, you sympathise with the people who are there. The situation is pathetic, especially the women’s department.

• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to add my voice to this important Motion. I also congratulate Sen.

We have been crying and complaining about the poor economy, corruption in our country, ethnic clashes and disasters that have always been there. However, within those two hours, he helped Kenyans to forget all the problems and challenges we have as a nation. Within those two hours he made us ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is unfortunate that many Kenyans have only known him after this very outstanding performance. He has been performing and winning. However, many of us Kenyans have even not known, not even been talking about him or even recognized his efforts. Now that the entire world is talking about him, we have also joined the world. We need to nurture the talents of all Kenyans. We have seen in the past, that there are many Kenyans who have made it to the Guinness World Book of Records. There is somebody called Joseph, the love of Kilifi ... view
