  • 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The Chair of the Constituencies Development Fund Committee is proposing to give parties who may have a dispute, an exhaustive mechanism of settling the dispute. This will ensure that it does not appear like the Board has the final word on any form of dispute. This is in line with international arbitration systems where an arbiter comes in whenever any two parties do not agree. I support the amendment. view
  • 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I would like to add my voice on this Bill. First and foremost, I would like to congratulate Hon. Sakaja because this is a Bill whose time is very ripe. I would like to support the amendment by Hon. Were by saying that when he talks about substituting the word “youth” with “Kenyans”, we are making the Bill more inclusive. The youth are already included when you talk about Kenyans. We must understand that what is fundamental is that the people who are unemployed in this country are not only the youth but many Kenyans who ... view

  • 18 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. First and foremost, let me congratulate the hon. Member for Emuhaya, Dr. Ottichilo, for having come up with this very noble and good Motion to propel our country’s energy generation strategy in a sustainable manner. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is true that if you look at Vision 2030, which is the national development blueprint for this country, we are by far behind many of the countries at our level of development in terms of our energy generation. I know that the Government has been very ... view
  • 18 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: nuclear when we know for sure that we have got very many other alternative ways which are much cleaner and greener that we can generate power from. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, historically we know countries that have had nuclear generated energy. Part of it has given them a lot of competitive advantage but we also know that some of these countries have also had to suffer some huge catastrophes as a result of relying on nuclear for their energy generation.

  • 18 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we have relied on the Seven Forks project for many years for hydro-electricity generation. These are the Kindaruma, Gitaru, Masinga and those other dams but we still know that up the River Tana we have the potential for the grand falls whose potential is also bigger than all the seven dams downstream combined but this again has never been tapped. view

This is very clean and cheap-to-produce energy which will not cost us much in terms of increasing the cost of energy production. We need not make energy a luxurious item. Indeed, as a nation, everybody is entitled to some form of electricity and the source of that electricity does not matter. view
