Hon. Esther Passaris (Nairobi City County, ODM) No, Hon. Temporary Speaker. On this matter, Pastor Ng’ang’a already went to the DCI and recorded a statement. The DCI are now coming back to me asking whether the clip is AI-generated. It is ridiculous to tell me they are going to investigate...

Hon. Esther Passaris (Nairobi City County, ODM) A shilling must build a shilling's worth of infrastructure, not inflated contracts, not ghost projects, nor wastage.

Hon. Esther Passaris (Nairobi City County, ODM) Yes. Hon. Wanjala had 20 minutes. As we celebrate progress, we must also confront what remains unsolved. There are other things he has done in sports that should have been mentioned in the State of the Nation Address. There is an issue that...

Hon. Esther Passaris (Nairobi City County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. When it comes to housing, I want Kenyans to understand. Just look at your own House, the one you are managing. I have my House and my business, yet I struggle. There is this one man, William Samoei...
