• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will very briefly make my observations on this Motion. There are critical pending legilsation Bills that Kenyans are anxiously waiting for them to be enacted in this House. The sooner the House addresses these crucial Bills, the better for harmony, political development and economic advancement in this country. It is, therefore, important that we do not belabour on this Motion other than to give it faster approval. With those few remarks, I support. view

• 22 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for the opportunity to very briefly contribute to this critical Bill.
