• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: I do not think in this time and era it makes any sense to say that pastoralists are killing each other because of scarcity of resources. The much I understand is that there is nobody’s cow that eats dead bodies. Therefore, people cannot be killing each other so that the cows can feed on their dead bodies. It is very painful. Where I come from, my people can neither plan nor till their land. They cannot manage their livestock simply because those who have failed to plan are causing havoc. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Secondly, on emergencies and drought, it is true that schools are being closed because children cannot concentrate. We are told in this country that there is a feeding programme in schools. However, some schools in Laikipia North, which is classified under Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), have not seen a coin of the school feeding programme for the last 12 months. It begs for an answer where this money is going to. I know this money has been allocated to the Ministry of Education. Some counties somewhere are enjoying that food. Most of the pastoralists went to schools during the ... view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: It is high time counties planned according to their uniqueness. Water, for example, is a very unique and important thing among the pastoralists. I know many Kenyans love nyama choma, but this meat does not grow from coffee trees. It can only be got from the pastoralists’ cows. If pastoralism is neglected and there is no infrastructure to ensure that pastoralists look after their cows in a profitable manner, then this resource-based conflict will become a vicious cycle among the pastoralists. view
• 10 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Sometimes I wonder if there are beneficiaries of this so-called resource- based conflict because it is also very interesting. I do not know who is conspiring with who among the pastoralists. It is because drought and all the hullaballoos that come with it always happen a year to the general election. It is high time the Government stopped giving excuses as to why there is conflict among the pastoralists. It must address the problem by taking the bull by its horns. I thank you and beg to support. view

• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I was just listening to and following the Personal Statement by my friend and good neighbour, Hon. Kawira Mwangaza. It is surprising and worrying the length to which people can go to malign women who seek leadership in this country, and the kind of character assassination. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak. view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: It is about the Personal Statement. view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: You know, Hon. Speaker, you are the spokesperson of Mt. Kenya and the whole country. view
• 29 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I conclude, it is a wake-up call that women seeking elective positions, especially in single-member constituencies and governor and senator positions need a lot of protection. I speak like that because I know. I am the wearer of that shoe. I am being threatened with guns and bullets. So, we are crying that the Ministry of Interior and Co-ordination of National Government and security agencies should give us the protection that we require. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
