• 25 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: nominations especially when polling stations are merged. This is because this denies old persons and persons with disabilities an opportunity to go and cast their votes. All aspirants in Nyandarua County collected funds and presented them to The National Alliance (TNA) Headquarters which gave us what they had for other counties, and we conducted nominations in every polling station. I believe this nomination was free and fair. I also believe that it is possible to have free and fair nominations. We are the people who can make free and fair nominations. My good friend, Hon. Ababu, spoke about freedom of ... view
• 25 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Therefore, because of this amendment, I will support this Report with reservation. We are the people to move the country progressively. We always operate at 100 per cent. If you look at this House today, you will see that the members who “party hopped” and made it to this House are statistically not more than 5 per cent. Many others “party hopped” but they never made it to this House. Hon. Temporary Deputy Spaker, we were seven women during the election. When six were defeated in the nominations, they joined other parties. The six garnered 50,000 votes and I was ... view

• 25 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: The country should go the majority way because it is always said that the majority have their way, and the minority have their say. If we look at the percentage, then we should go the majority way. Having said that let me conclude by saying that we are the people to make the change. Let us see the bigger picture and say to the people who do not believe in a party that they have the right to choose a party of their choice so that they can exercise their freedom. view

• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: I come from a school of thought where I feel we may not succeed by making and attempting to implement all these laws. I am in the school of thought with Hon. Kang’ata that until the day we shall hang somebody and celebrate that the person has been hanged and gone to live with the creator either in hell or heaven, we will not succeed in the fight against corruption. That is the only time we shall succeed in this war against corruption. Corruption has become a societal problem. It has gone a notch higher and spread to our children. ... view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: We have a problem with the EACC. When a corrupt person is summoned by the EACC, he or she is escorted by boda bodas and women dancing. It is like we celebrate corruption in this country. We only need one law. May be we should merge all the laws and mete out punishment that befits the crime.

Most of the alcohol that we poured out was very well labelled and stamped and bore ... view
