• 14 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to join my colleagues in passing my sincere condolences to the families that lost their beloved ones in the Garissa attack. At the outset, I want to say that we have seen a lot of laxity in terms of the Government’s response to such incidents. We can cite disaster preparedness in such incidents.

That is a very big loss to ... view

• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I would like to dwell on two key items from the Presidential Speech. First, the President made an apology on behalf of the past Presidents to the nation about the past injustices against Kenyans. I want to say that was a bold move by the President.

The current geothermal generation has generated an additional 594 megawatts which places the country in a better position in terms of power generation. view

• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, having noted that Kenya is listed as the eighth largest producer of geothermal power, geothermal generation has also been involved in scandals in terms of procurement. There have been very serious scandals namely; the Geothermal Development Corporation (GDC) has been on the spot for having irregular dealings in procurement and failure to meet capacity targets.
