• 10 May 2017 in National Assembly: useful information from culprits of crime. Therefore, police commanders should restrain themselves from giving shoot-to-kill orders to their juniors. We have seen some people directing police officers to shoot to kill, which is very dangerous. Instructing an armed police officer to shoot a civilian because he was involved in something is dangerous. Most of the time, these are people who are involved in political activities, and the shoot-to-kill order is very dangerous. We should encourage people to follow the due process of the law. If people are arrested, they should face the law. They can be dealt with in accordance ... view
• 6 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to also contribute to the Adjournment Motion. As we proceed on recess, this is a very important time for all the Members of this august House. We are going to face the electorates and party primaries. This is the time we will be given our score card on whether we did our work or not. This is one of the very demanding jobs. As much as people ridicule Members of Parliament, everybody wants this job and will be looking forward to dislodging us. view

I know there is party hopping and some people have gone ahead to form their own political outfits, so that they can nominate themselves. For us who belong to the largest party in the country, we are not worried about competition. We are waiting to go out there. When we go out ... view

• 6 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: business because this is about competition and we must allow democratic space for everyone. To those who are castigating and throwing stones at the Opposition, I would like to tell them that we have seen violence in the Jubilee Alliance Party. In Nakuru, we saw violence where even a senior Member of the Jubilee Alliance Party exchanged blows with his opponents. We have seen the same in other areas in Nairobi. They should not just look at the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and tell us this or that. This is democratic space. Being the largest party, interest is high. We ... view
