• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: We also want our citizens to respect police force. When a police officer completes training and he or she is posted somewhere to work, he should get good facilities. I am happy that Hon. Waluke has brought this Motion. In his contribution to the Motion, he has educated some of us who have not been accessing police facilities. The Government should provide good facilities to police officers. Their salaries are low and so, they are not motivated to continue working to protect this country. They are forced to move to the private sector; say, the insurance companies. view
• 8 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: This country needs experienced police officers. A police officer can only gain that experience while he is on duty. The fact that a good number of police officers are opting to work for, say, 10 years and then quit the police service means that we might end up lacking people to carry out the duty of protecting our people. This country needs police officers. There should be a programme to encourage the citizens of this country to love police officers. They are the people who can assist and protect us from anything. view

• 24 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: country have no medicine. The fact is that a country with no healthy people is going down. We are going back to the dark days where medicine could not reach hospitals. Now that healthcare is devolved, we do not see why medicine is not in hospitals. This is the question that most of us should ask, even if it means the national Government sitting down with the county governments to find out why medicine is not in hospitals. Why do we say the national Government is not helping county governments while the national Government blames the county governments for not ... view

• 16 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: People just go on selling things. I do not know on what recommendations. Very valid income earning projects are just handled very badly.

• 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon Speaker forgiving me this opportunity to join other Members who have contributed to this important Motion. I have very little to speak about this today but my main question is why this issue has taken too long. The Tenth Parliament discussed this issue, but nothing was done about it. This is the Eleventh Parliament and we are still talking about paying pension to the retired teachers. This House should be given reasons why there has been that delay. Those teachers are citizens of this nation. They did some good work and retired like other public servants who ... view
