• 3 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. First and foremost, I want to thank the President for meeting precisely the threshold provided in the Constitution to submit his report to this honourable House and by extension to the Kenyan people.

Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I would like to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security concerning the unprecedented destruction of property and loss of human lives as a result of inter-tribal conflicts within Marsabit County. view
• 12 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, in the recent past, Marsabit County and, specifically, Moyale Constituency, has experienced inter-tribal conflicts which have resulted in loss of lives and incredible destruction of property.

• 12 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Much obliged hon. Speaker. I could not agree more. But just as a possible addition or modification to the able Chairman’s position, I propose, just like you said, particularly on the issue of declaration of national disasters, things like this may not wait for two weeks. So, I suggest an interim kind of report on this matter within one week to address what is extremely urgent. Then the others can run the full length of two weeks, as the Speaker has rightly ruled. view
