• 21 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. It is shameful that every two weeks we have to rise in this House to ask for a Motion of Adjournment to discuss insecurity in the country. We do not know whether the Executive listens to what we way. We do not know whether they watch television. We do not know whether they hear our cries each time. It is shameful that the Government cannot use the resources that it has to contain insecurity in the country. Just recently, several people were killed in Baringo and Elgeiyo/Marakwet counties specifically in Marakwet East Constituency. We ... view
• 7 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support what the Chairman has indicated. Our Constitution is very clear. We should not discriminate against the youth, persons with disability or anybody. So, it is clear that we remove it so that it is open to all. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No. 33(1), I seek leave of the House for the purpose of discussing increased cases of insecurity across the country and especially in arid and semi-arid areas, that has been occasioned by cattle rustling. Hon. Speaker, increased cases of insecurity has led to loss of lives and livestock, and displacement of hundreds of people in the country. Cattle rustling continues to be a key contributor to insecurity in the larger Kerio Valley Region between the Pokots and the Marakwets communities. Those attacks have negatively impacted on the socio-economic activities in the region and have ... view

Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion: THAT, pursuant to Standing Order No. 33 (1), I seek leave of the House for the purpose of discussing the increased cases of insecurity across the country, especially arid and semi-arid areas occasioned by cattle rustling.

• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the last 14 years, the communities of Marakwet and Pokot have been living in harmony since 2003 but for some reason, from March last year, the two communities started engaging and in this particular case, our brothers across the other side, the Pokots, seem to be the aggressors. For the last 10 months, the children of Marakwet have not been to school. They have been to school on and off for a while. As a community, we have lost over 1,000 goats and over 500 cattle during this period and learning has been disrupted. I ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: These are basically cattle rustlers. It is not the Pokot community. These are cattle rustlers from Baringo County, Tiaty Constituency. For a while, we have requested the national Government, through the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government, because we have seen it looks like they are unable to contain this menace, to help us. We have requested for Kenya Police Reservists (KPR) for the last 20 or 30 years. Recently, they gave us 45 for Marakwet East and 15 for my constituency but these are not enough. The place is vast. Tiaty Constituency is one-and-a-half times the size ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: the way they did in Mount Elgon so that we can do an operation to stop this thing once and for all. We need to live in peace because we have lived in peace for the last 10 months. I know what happened in Mount Elgon. The people of Mount Elgon are now living in peace and this is what the Marakwet community require. We want to live in peace. May we use the KDF because they have gone to Somalia and South Sudan and we are not living in our houses? Why can they not come and help us? ... view

• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the proposal to amend. This is to clarify what “undertaking” means in this clause. view
