James Opiyo Wandayi

Hon. Opiyo Wandayi (Ugunja, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I am sorry for interrupting the order of House business but I am curious. I am sure you can use Standing Order 1 to indulge me. A while back, Hon. Samuel Atandi raised very serious issues here. This is a House of records....

Hon. Opiyo Wandayi (Ugunja, ODM) Yes. He was saying so on the basis that the issues raised in the Petition in question were not addressed conclusively by the Committee. I had a discussion with the Chairperson of the Public Petitions Committee this morning. We agreed that he needs to be...

Hon. Opiyo Wandayi (Ugunja, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I said at the outset that I will try to be very cautious and temperate. It is not for me to investigate militias. That cannot be my work. Not long ago, I heard a Member say here that those who have been...
