• 6 Dec 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, allow me to convey my message of condolence to the family of the late Hon. Nyenze. I know it is painful for the widow, the children and the entire residents of Kitui West at such a time. Mine is to say, may the peace of the Lord which surpasses human understanding be upon all of you in Jesus name. Coming to this Motion, it is saddening to know that 42 lives have been lost in Bungoma, wives have become widows, husbands have become widowers and children have lost their lives.

• 12 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: As women of this nation, we are not ready for war. We saw what happened in 2007. We are saying NASA should accept and go for elections with us or they stop their demonstrations in this country. Thank you. view
• 11 Oct 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am so happy that the Supreme Court has allowed Dr. Ekuru to be on the ballot paper.

I want to tell him that there are many things that have happened. Women in this country are crying because their businesses are not doing well. There is much political unrest. We cannot leave Kenya to be ... view
