• 2 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Speaker. When I was--- view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you. I want to thank the President for complying with Articles 10, 132 and 240 of the Constitution to address this nation. I was among the first people to stand up when the President apologised to this nation. The President was trying to implement the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission (TJRC) Report that required the sitting President to apologise to Kenyans for the misdeeds that were meted on Kenyans. I agree with the President when he accepted to apologise on behalf of Kenyans. We are not supposed to implement the TJRC Report in parts. We are supposed to go ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Welfare Association saying that prices must be increased. We want to see action. We do not want to hear stories from the President as much as we respect him. I have an issue with regard to how the President acted on Article 254 of the Constitution. If we go by this Report of EACC, we are going to have Members of Parliament and leaders of this country in trouble. That is because tomorrow we will have our opponents in our constituencies taking letters to EACC and accusing us of the same. Today, if you are on this list, even if ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Kenyans will take it that you are being investigated. When the President brings such a Report, it must be authenticated. We should know that people are implicated for real. Otherwise, if we take it for granted, tomorrow you and I will be in this Report. It will not be business as usual when the Report comes before this House. When the President talks about equity in this nation, we have not seen it in the appointments. It is within our knowledge that it is only two or three tribes that get those positions. We want him to be real. If ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: We need you people to tell us why you are not giving our youths IDs, or you have started rigging for the 2017 elections? I want to thank the people of Nigeria for showing the world--- view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I was affected by the same so much that I even realised that all the ID registration officers come from one tribe. One case which I was given is Kiambu. When I went to the Registrar of Persons, I was told that the only IDs which were released were from Kiambu County. I asked: “Why do I have more than 100,000 identity cards that have not been issued to Mavoko and Machakos County in general?” I am only raising this issue so that the President addresses this nation and shows how he is taking the case of corruption firmly. view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you. I thank the people of Nigeria who have shown the world that they can vote out a sitting President. I am so optimistic that come 2017, I will see Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka being the President of this nation. view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: We have seen that even when you have a sitting president; it does not mean that people cannot vote with their heads. If this is the direction that--- view
• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support the amendment given how we have defined the term “family”. When a woman wants to divorce you, she may call her boyfriend who is a policeman to arrest you. We should do away with it. This Bill should be done like that. view
• 10 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. On my own behalf, and on behalf of the reisidents of Mavoko, I also join my colleagues in conveying my condolences to the family of the late hon. Muchai. This is a very heinous act. I call it a cowardly act. Hon. Muchai was my neighbour. He was a competent lawyer. Kenya has not only lost a leader but also a very intelligent person. As I also pass my condolences to the families of the soldiers and the driver, my concern is the security of this nation. It is high time we addressed insecurity in this ... view
