• 21 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: where we are talking about operation of factories. We also feel the impact at the level of the food that we put on our tables.

• 1 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: As Hon. Duale was speaking, I was consulting with my colleague from Wajir, who has just left. We were whispering because it is allowed that we consult in low tones.

Duale has raised and consider the comments that other Members have made, ensure that this House ... view

Duale’s point of order as you consider the issues that have been raised by the courts. I am careful not to comment on the matters that seem to have been concluded by the courts.

Is the doctrine they mentioned a foreign word within our Constitution or is it a matter that we can prosecute? view
• 1 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: I have not researched on this subject but I would like you to give us guidance on how to proceed on the matter that has been raised by Hon.

• 18 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity.

• 18 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: course. It is important when the Departmental Committee on Education and Research handles this matter to find out whether there could be other students who are going through courses of a practical nature like this course that may not have been accredited. When people go to university, they find themselves calling themselves engineers because of the hope and aspiration that they have before they start training.
