• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: honourable friend, hon. Musimba, is a very good driver. If he were to knock somebody today dead, and I do not wish him to knock anyone dead, he would not be charged with murder; rather he would be charged with manslaughter. The difference is that with regard to murder, you must have had intention. However, in this case it was just a mistake and an accident. To convert light moments into malicious situations is missing the point. view
• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: The allegations of malice have not been supported. Nobody has said that he has gone to speak to the Speaker and the Speaker said that he intended to abuse the guy. Hon. Musimba has not told us that he went to see the Speaker and had a conversation with him and ventilated what he has today ventilated in this House.

• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: I like what the former President of the United States of America (USA), George Washington said. view
• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Some people want me to also quote hon. Moi here. Moi has also supported this. To quote President Moi, who is popularly referred to here, he said: “Good politics leads to good life.” I am not seeking support. I am contributing. view

The Speaker always refers to me, “Look at this guy here.’’ I even laugh and sit down and say that there is nothing that he has said about me. We should differentiate between matters of style and matters that are malicious. view
• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Another accusation against the Speaker is that he makes unfounded allegations against Members of Parliament. There is nothing that has been said here by the Mover that shows the Speaker said anything that was unfounded against Members. I have listened here to the Speaker when he communicates. It is all written. When the Speaker states that some Members of Parliament have been reported in the newspapers--- We take parliamentary notice of certain things like the Judges take judicial notice of matters of public importance.

• 24 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: misbehaviour? How do you invite the media when you want to fight and you have not invited them from the beginning? view
• 19 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, clause 15 of the Bill be amended in subclause (2) by deleting the word “encourages” appearing immediately after the words “respondent who” and substituting therefor the words “aids or abets”. What we have just done is simply to replace the word “encourages” with the words “aids or abets” which is more of a legal terminology that is acceptable generally and that is used across legislations. view
