• 1 Aug 2023 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am very happy to hear the support by the Members of Parliament. I am really proud of you all. The fight against corruption is sometimes a lonely battle and not very helpful. It is a great encouragement when I have moral support of the Members of Parliament. We also need support from the Executive. In this moment and time, I want to plead with the President of this country to lead us in the fight against corruption or State capture. Corruption is theft of time, opportunities and other things. One person cannot fight corruption. ... view
• 26 Jul 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I thank my dear friend and colleague, Hon. Rahim, for bringing this Amendment Bill to highlight and fill the gap that might be there. I have been on the Constitution Review Committee since 1999. Where we sat, we were tear-gassed and did many things together. We came up with the issue of ethics and many other like values, and came up with ideas on how we are going to come up with a new Constitution for this country.

• 26 Jul 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, I object to some statements that have been made in the heat of the moment, whether they were from Azimio or Kenya Kwanza coalitions. I stand here as the only true independent Member of Parliament. Out of the 12 Members of Parliament who are independent, 10 went and signed memorandums of understanding with the Kenya Kwanza Coalition and one signed with the Azimio Coalition. I am on record as having not gone to Kenya Kwanza or Azimio coalitions. I value the elements of both sides. I have great respect for the President of Kenya because of the ... view
• 26 Jul 2023 in National Assembly: I have many things. As they say, it is the weather of the day and the climate of the season. We must not forget that the weather of the day is not the climate of the season. The weather of a bad day may make the day bad. However, we must look forward to the climate that we want to bring of understanding others, perseverance and being grateful of where we are. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I want to end by saying that I support this Bill. However, before much is said about it, the element of meritocracy must be considered ... view
