• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: I congratulate the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology for what they are doing. I know they have inherited a deep-rooted problem that has been there for a long time. The current CS and his team are trying, and we can see the structures they have put in place, to ensure that some facilities are given to schools. For the first time, some of us are benefiting, especially in Kapenguria or West Pokot. The other day, I saw a long list of some schools in West Pokot which are meant to benefit for the first time since Independence. Some time ... view
• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: in order and I believe things will work. Sometime back, the University of Nairobi, Kenyatta University, Dar-es-Salaam University in Tanzania and Makerere University in Uganda were prestigious institutions of higher learning. Today, I heard that the EACC will be conducting investigations on some individuals with regard to their education background right from primary school. This is shameful. We should not even go to that level. This is something that KNEC ought to have done a long time back. Why should we use the police to harass people because of academic certificates? We are not equal. I want to praise Governor ... view
• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to say that I have been here longer than most Members, although, there are others who have been here longer than me. I participated in the mlolongo system of elections and they are the ones which brought me here. I went through the Kenya African National Union (KANU) primaries. The good thing with view
• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: system is you can know which line is longer than the others. Unfortunately, things would turn and the shorter line would be declared the winner. We need to be very careful and I am happy the Chair of the Committee is here. We are playing with the minds and lives of Kenyans. Personally, I speak what is in my heart. I come from a hostile area. We neighbour Uganda and there is no difference between them and us because we are all in the East African region. We also play one national anthem of East African Community (EAC). For a ... view
• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: What will be the picture outside there? Some areas have started the primary nominations. You have seen what is happening with the ODM. Tomorrow it will be another party. Even in the Jubilee Alliance Party, where I am a member, we have seen the same happening. I am a Member of Kapenguria Constituency. I will face other friends during nominations and they are welcome. They are young men and I am always with them. After that, I will face others because this is democracy. It is the people of Kapenguria to decide who will represent them for the next five ... view
• 5 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: I would be happy, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. If they say today that I will be the candidate, I will rejoice. But if they say we go for nominations, I am ready to go with them. view

• 5 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for also giving me this opportunity to add my voice in congratulating Hon. Alfred Agoi, who has made efforts to bring this very important Bill before us. It has come at the right time when Kenyans have opened their eyes to see the importance of education. It is very critical because for some time, KNEC has not been doing its work well. That is why there are some emerging issues where some papers are got from River Road and used for positions that would have been taken by those who worked hard ... view
