• 24 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support His Excellency the President’s State of the Nation Address. The speech was well balanced, well thought out and I feel that it touched most of the issues that affect Kenyans on a day to day basis. I noted that on devolution, which I am very keen on because I worked with the county government, the national Government has so far transferred a total of Kshs1.7 trillion. This is noteworthy and laudable because in some areas, we have seen a lot of development. I want to say that ... view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to ask Question No. 39 of 2019 to the CS for National Treasury and Planning: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary give the status of tax collection in the country from 2014 to date, indicating the various categories of taxpayers, that is, individuals, corporates and businesses, stating the amounts collected vis-à-vis what was projected? (ii) What steps are in place to ensure improved tax revenue collection? view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Report. The Committee did a thorough job and they have come up with a very nice Report. Even though as a nominated Member of this House I do not have NG-CDF kitty, I have witnessed areas in which NG-CDF has helped the citizens of this country. Allow me to mention Bahati Constituency where, recently, I witnessed that within the past five years, there have been six new secondary schools that have been constructed courtesy of NG-CDF. The purchase of the land and construction of the whole secondary school has ... view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Bahati. I also witnessed 18 police posts and 5,600 youth who are trained in a single constituency in a duration of five years in carpentry, masonry, and electricals and so on. Those are the skills we lack, and that is why we are importing furniture from China. view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I did not borrow from him; I was a guest when Bahati Constituency NG-CDF was launching its strategic plan. I was the chief guest and I witnessed what happened. I do not have NG-CDF as a nominated Member. I can only support if I give examples of where I have witnessed. In fact, in the same constituency of Bahati, OCPD offices were constructed – a two-storey building fully fledged with offices even for Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and a small cell. We need to enhance NG-CDF. I join the Leader of the Minority Party by ... view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is as if he was reading the riot act to me, but I take it positively. Let me withdraw the fact. It is the truth. I withdraw the truth. The NG-CDF is working miracles. As you rightly put it, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Members of this House are performing miracles. Allow me to refer to Bahati Constituency where a classroom is being constructed by the NG-CDF at a cost of Kshs800,000. At the same school, the county government is constructing a classroom at a cost of Kshs1.5 million. view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Some Members, including Hon. Millie, who is excited, are talking of Kshs5 million. I am talking of a fact that I have witnessed and I can stand anywhere and give evidence on this. A classroom in Bahati is being constructed by the NG-CDF at a cost of Kshs800,000, but the county government, at the same school, using the same materials and the same size – in fact sometimes poor quality - a classroom is being constructed at a cost of Kshs1.5 million. I want to advise the Auditor-General to use the same seriousness that he is using in auditing the ... view
• 26 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Member is out of order by insinuating that one Member of this House, who is not even here to defend himself, passed a Bill yet the Bill was passed by the whole House. Whether you were there or not, did not contribute or you opposed, it is not a single Member who passed that Bill. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
