• 18 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to the Report by the Special Funds Accounts Committee. I want to congratulate them for bringing their first Report. Among the four oversight committees they are the first ones to present a Report to this House. I belong to PIC and today we had our share of castigation from the Speaker because we have not yet produced a single Report. I wish to register my congratulations to the Chair and his Committee for a job well done. On the same note, I wish to comment on the ... view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. From the outset, I want to thank the Member for Busia County, Hon. Florence Mutua for bringing this up. It is really sad that we are losing lives in this magnitude. The statistics are worrying. This Motion is timely although I wish we did not have a Motion emanating from such an accident. My contributions on this Motion are three pronged, namely, the issue of carelessness, rogue traffic police and safety. I want to start with the issue of carelessness. Eighty per cent of the accidents ... view

• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. We cannot judge the Report by the fact that the names do not seem to be from certain regions. Therefore, I want you to declare the Member for Siaya out of order for trying to insinuate that the President did not consider regional balance. view
• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to second the Motion. It is prioritizing the absorption of NYS servicemen and servicewomen by the disciplined services. Indeed, it is a timely Motion. We spend a lot of money on training of NYS recruits, during which we instill skills on our young men and women. I am disappointed that after taking our young men and women through that kind of paramilitary training, most of them end up being jobless. We do not absorb them into our disciplined services. Therefore, they become a threat to national security. Naturally, if ... view
• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I urge that we have a programme of training and retaining NYS recruits. It is unfortunate that we put so much resource into a venture and then we abandon it. After some time, we invest in another venture and abandon it. Doing so would be going round in circles, and it would not be beneficial to taxpayers. I urge that we train and retain. We should ensure that every time our disciplined services – the KDF, the KWS, the Kenya Forest Service, the Kenya Prisons Service, and the National Police Service – have recruitment, they give priority to young men ... view
