• 19 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. view
• 29 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also want to join my colleagues in congratulating hon. Chris Wamalwa for bringing this important Motion to the House. As a Member from the neighbourhood of Trans Nzoia, I am aware that since the colonial times and the post-colonial time that area has been marginalised and neglected. It is now time the area opened up, especially through education. Anybody can appreciate that in this Republic, there are lots of imbalances in education. Some areas started early, while others started much later. view
• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I want to join my colleagues in congratulating the Committee especially on this issue. Where I come from, the place is rich in these minerals and some harassment has been going on over the years. This will save the situation in that place. I support. view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, for also giving me this opportunity to add my voice to this adjournment Motion. First and foremost, I want to thank my colleagues very much for the work they have done, especially the Bills and Motions that have been passed in this House. view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: This is my third term in Parliament. I was in the Eighth and Ninth Parliaments; if I compare what is happening now with what happened in those Parliaments, this is a House of honourable Members. It is not like what I used to see. People can now reason. Through that reason, they sound and feel as Kenyans. There was a time when people used to reason along tribal lines. I remember there was a time when war broke out here and somebody wanted us to pull out enmass, so that the Government could go down. Both sides have worked hard, ... view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: and some of us worked in the KANU Government. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, first and foremost, I want to thank Hon. (Dr.) Pukose and the Members of Parliament from Trans Nzoia for the unity they have shown. In fact, last weekend we had a function in Kitale and all those hon. Members who were there talked much about that institution. This will be a lesson not only to the Governor of Trans Nzoia and his team but also the whole nation. The issue of corruption is now a reality. The Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade will, through your direction, go there, work and bring here a proper report. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: I know this will give others a signal that nothing can happen without involving other leaders. An individual cannot wake up in the morning and decide on something that can affect a whole community. I am a neighbour to that place and a resident of Trans Nzoia. I know that people are happy about the facility, because it is only to Eldoret that everybody from Turkana, West Pokot and many other places runs. If a facility is in Kitale, Trans Nzoia will be there; it will help raise the living standards of the people as far as health is concerned. view
• 5 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity also to add my voice to this very important issue, which affects Kenyans. I sympathize with the way we are conducting this issue here. Most of the Members do not understand the suffering that the people of Lamu are going through. This is not only in Lamu. But most Kenyans, especially from where I come from, people are seriously suffering. The poor are denied their right of having a piece of land. This is a God given House and the Members are appointed to represent the voices of the ... view
• 5 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: place now. We are serious on this. When we talk about insecurity to our people, especially in places where some of us come from, namely, the Pokots, Turkanas, Karamajongs and the Sabaots, the people are dying day and night, but nobody cares about it. It is as if the security of this nation is selective. When certain people are touched, the mighty forces go to that place to protect the people, while others die like rats. It is high time we changed and ensured that Kenyans are equal. There are no great Kenyans and lesser Kenyans. We are all the ... view
