13 Dec 2012 in National Assembly:
Yes, indeed, Mr. Speaker. Not that I have the answer to my Question. That would beat the purpose of asking Questions but I want to confirm that Rosemary Wariara is back in the country with 17 others.

5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir I was waiting for the microphone. You have heard a long story from the Assistant Minister. It was a good story but my question was simple. When will the bridge be put up at Witeithie Centre? He has talked about the financial year and yet people are dying.
