• 23 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. You have directed some Chairpersons to indicate when they will respond. I have not got an indication as to when my request for a Statement will be responded to. I come from West Pokot and we cannot even go home if we go on recess today because the roads are impassable. After hon. Pkosing raised the issue, I was expecting that the officers would be going with us to work on the roads immediately. However, it has not been indicated when my Statement will be delivered. What is happening now is that ... view

• 23 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, two months is a long time. In fact, people are ploughing to get food. So, if you talk about two months and yet invaders from outside have come to evict the people who are there, that will cause a problem. The Chair should even talk about two or three weeks. He should meet with these people, go to the police and move to the ground to save the situation immediately. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. This is my first time to speak in this House. I appreciate the chance because it has come at a time when we are discussing an important issue here. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: First and foremost, I want to thank the people of Kapenguria who have given me a chance to come and represent them in this House.

• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: I rise to support this Motion. I have gone through the report which is here. This is my third time to be in this House and I know of only two people; namely, hon. Balala and hon. Ngilu. From information from certain quarters, I know that the nominees, whom we are discussing today, can take this country to a higher level. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Where I come from was marginalized for a very long time. Ours was a closed district during the colonial time. When the African Government came in, it did little to improve the lives of my people. That is why the Pokots are known as “cattle rustlers”. It is not their wish to do that. However, because of the environment they live in, they engage in such practices. But not all of them do it. In the community, we have church leaders, pastors and educated people who cannot engage in cattle rustling. People see them and say: “These are the people ... view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to thank the President and his Deputy because of the people they have given us. I believe when given the positions, they will deliver. They will, in particular, help the people of the place I come from, who have been marginalized for a very long time. I know here we have a committee in charge of land affairs. Maybe, tomorrow, their names will come out. I want to tell the Cabinet Secretary to be in charge view
• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Ahsante sana, Bw. Naibu Spika, kwa kunipa nafasi hii ili nichangie Hoja iliyo mbele yetu. Kwanza, nataka kuanza kwa kushukuru kazi ambayo imefanywa na Serikali kwa muda mdogo uliopita. Ningetaka kuanza na wilaya mpya ambayo tumepata kama watu wa Pokot. Bw. Naibu Spika, imekuwa ni njia moja ya kuleta utawala karibu na watu. Sasa, tuna Wilaya ya Pokot North ambayo imekuwa sehemu ya Uganda kwa muda mrefu. Katika mwaka wa 1970, sehemu hiyo ilitolewa Uganda na ikawa sehemu ya Kenya. Ni sehemu ambayo ilikuwa imesahaulika kimaendeleo. Eneo la West Pokot kwa jumla ni sehemu ambayo, kwa muda mrefu, imebaki nyuma ... view
• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Hata hivyo, Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, mshangao wangu, na nataka Waziri anayehusika 2116 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES June 27, 2007 na wale wengine ambao wako hapa wajue. Wakati Mhe. Rais anakuja na watu wanamuuliza, anawajibu kwa kuwapatia matakwa yao. Lakini wale ambao wanahusika na kuwasaidia watu kwa karibu wanaenda mwendo wa kinyonga. Bw. Naibu Spika wa Muda, hali ya barabara katika wilaya hizo mbili, yaani Pokot North na West Pokot, kuna sehemu ambayo tangu dunia iundwe, ama Kenya ipate uhuru hadi sasa, haijui kitu inayoitwa barabara. Hata watoto wakiona gari--- Hata sio watoto! Hata watu wazima! Hata hawajui kitu kinachoitwa Serikali. ... view
