• 25 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not know what is the matter with my dear sister here. The best I can do is to put it on media, but it is a criminal matter and I think she can handle it with the right Ministry. view

• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to contribute to this Motion, basically because apart from Migingo being mentioned as an island, Kacheliba is also mentioned here.

That notwithstanding, what I am raising is a matter of principle and procedure. If we establish the presence of the Ugandan military in Kenya and yet there is no such presence of that military, then we must not continue. view

• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am the Member of Parliament for Kacheliba--- view
