• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On 21st of last month, I requested for two Statements from the Ministry of Education, and their undertaking was that they would give them on Tuesday and Wednesday last week. I am yet to receive them. view
• 2 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, one was about the annual head teachers conference and the other one was about the famine situation in our schools. view
• 21 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to seek a clarification.
