• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I like what a writer by the name Tim Hansel said: “Pain is inevitable but misery is optional.” You cannot allow the Member for Lungalunga to be miserable. That is why he stood. He is in pain, which is inevitable. He has not inflicted himself with pain. He cannot remain miserable because some people want him to be miserable. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I do not require Hon. Mbadi’s assistance on this matter. He should listen to me. I have a lot of respect to the Party Leader of FORD (K). I joined the legal profession while he was practising as M/s Wetangula & Ngamati Advocates. When I went to his law firm, he was gracious enough to allow me to be a pupil there but I had already been given another chance in another place. So, I did not participate there. I know him as a very decent man. He is not a witch-hunter. He does not seek bad things ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. John Mbadi, I am a first-term but he is a second-term Member of Parliament. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I am telling you. You need to read the law. This is not accounts. Hon. Speaker, I seek a ruling from you on the contradiction of Article 124 of the Constitution and Standing Order Nos. 19 and 176. It is not intended that a Member should be discharged from a committee for political purposes. That is not the law. This is my 26th year of legal practice. I qualify to be a Member of the Supreme Court, if I were to apply. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am asking you who is more senior than me and I am sure you see well than I do. I am seeking your ruling on this matter. I can see that Hon. Mbalu is also in total agreement by virtue of association and residence. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second this Bill in the strongest terms possible. I expect hon. Wanga to listen to me. It is only that we do not enforce party discipline here. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. His observations are in order. I am, of course, rising to second this Bill as the Member of Parliament for Ainabkoi Constituency and, more importantly, as the Chair of the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. As you know, we have tabled a Report on this matter in which the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs discussed, deliberated and resolved unanimously - without any dissension - to support this Bill. The Report that has been tabled here completely supports the position that the Leader of the Majority Party has taken in respect of this Bill. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: As you know, I am also a family man. I have two girls and one boy. That tells you that my son and I are on the minority. The passage of this Bill will also empower me to nominate someone else, so that we may be at par in my house. At the moment, I am the loser. Every time we vote, I lose with my son. This Bill is important to me because it is not a Bill for the women. It is a gender Bill. Gender involves both male and female. Anyone imagining that we are supporting a ... view
