• 13 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: This country has become a crying country. All leaders are crying, including the Head of State. I listened to him yesterday when he was addressing the nation. He was talking about these issues. I thought the President would go further and take drastic measures as the head of this country. People must take responsibility in this country. The problem in Kenya is that nobody takes responsibility. More than 80 people died in three days and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of NTSA is still seated in his office. It cannot happen like that. This happened in Budalangi when we were ... view
• 13 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: As I am talking to you today, Koye bridge right from Usenge to Osieko is almost collapsing. The Government is seeing what is happening. Why should we keep on crying? Do we not have laws? We even buried many people in these places which we are talking about like Sachangwan. What is so difficult in constructing three kilometres of a second road, if they have no money to construct the whole road from Nairobi to Malaba? They should identify these places and see how they can save the lives of Kenyans. People must take responsibility. The CEO of NTSA must ... view
• 13 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: There are so many potholes on the road that also cause accidents. Nobody blames the the KeNHA. They keep on blaming the drivers and yet these potholes stay on those roads for very many days. When we are budgeting, money is allocated and nobody works on the potholes. view
• 13 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Another mistake we made is to create NTSA and employ people who are not trained. They are just collecting their own rent, as people have called it here. We would have seconded special traffic police officers to NTSA. We should monitor the trained people so that they do not also engage in corruption. The President told us that the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) will be used in the transportation of goods to Uganda and Rwanda; that they would replace trailers. We do not want to see trailers on the road. We want everybody to transport their goods using the railway ... view
• 13 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: I also thank Hon. Wanyonyi for moving this Motion. Even the place where we lost more than 19 people in Bungoma is a black spot. The Chinese are still constructing the road. The Chief Executive Officer of KeNHA has not visited the place to see exactly what has …. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to bring to your notice that the Member for Kiharu simply matched from the other side, picked a bottle of water, crossed the Floor to Canaan without going to bow at the Bar. This is Canaan, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: ( off-record ) view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a House of Hon. Members. The first person who introduced the topic of polygamy in this House was Hon. Duale. view
• 26 Sep 2017 in National Assembly: Instead of going to that, my point of order was that the Member decided to contribute instead of raising a point of order. That is what I was objecting. view
