• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, there has been a tendency by Members to discuss deliberations of Committees before the Committees have completed their investigations and before the report is tabled before this House. view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I seek guidance from the Chair on this issue because many Members are new and may not know by now all the Standing Orders and their provisions but, most importantly, in relation to speaking on an issue of national concern. For example, the issue of Westgate Mall is of national concern. This is speaking conclusively on that matter when this House has not concluded its investigations and neither has a report been laid. view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I am raising this matter because it is not only the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security who has spoken on an issue that I believe has not been concluded. I can quote many examples. I have quoted the case of Gladys Boss Shollei which is under investigation by the Committee. This matter was discussed substantially in a rally. view

I seek guidance so that I do not always fall prey to the media by raising issues that are serious and are before this House. view
• 17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon.

• 17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: are doing important work and their commitment to duty and ensuring that their amendments cut across the board. I am also very impressed by hon. Members who bring in their own amendments and add value because of past experience. This is what hon. Kimani Ichung’wah has done today.

• 16 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, in his Statement, the Chairperson should inquire and report on; one, the disciplinary measures being taken against the police officers who watched the gangs fighting instead of enforcing the law; two, the measures the police have taken to apprehend these gangs given their notoriety in the area; and three, the steps being taken by the Inspector General to strengthen and improve the response of police officers to any emergency situation, especially in Nairobi County. view
