• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, we know we are only patrons for the NG-CDF. However, when we go to the constituency, we are not known as patrons. We are known as the NG-CDF managers. When we do not get the NG-CDF money, the schools and other infrastructure fall apart and it is the MP who gets the flogging. If the NG-CDF Committee of this House does not get its act together, a half of us may not be back in this House after next year’s general elections. This is the most critical time. I believe the Chairman and his Committee needs to ... view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I join my colleague, Hon. Mboni, in supporting that the Dyer and Blair Investment Bank is bound by law to have a fiduciary duty to compensate the client. I hope we get it done fast and paid with interest as well. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to second. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on both petitions. On the one of mechanisation of tea picking, we need to see how we can stop mechanisation of every part of the industry. As much as we need mechanisation, we do not need it in the tea farms. The second one regards squatters. The squatter problem is all over the country. I wish the Departmental Committee on Lands could have sorted it out. My colleague, Hon. G.G. Murugara, was just here. His people have been squatting on my land for the last 40 to 50 years, but they are ... view

• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning has not explained. It is a terminating report and not every year report. He should say it is a terminating report because it is the whole Fund being terminated. That is what he has to report on. It is terminating and not every year one. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. If Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal was very particular when the Speaker was reading the request by Hon. Osotsi, he would note that the Speaker mentioned that it had been rejected and so, there are no changes which can be done even if Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal wants it. The Speaker has overruled Hon. Osotsi’s amendments. It was on the Floor and it is on the Hansard as well. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to concur with my Chairman, hon. Pkosing. Initially, we had said that the Director-General can be any executive who has a degree. He does not have to be an engineer. On further consultations with stakeholders, we decided that he should be an engineer. However, the amendment that we are debating today is to safeguard somebody who is in office so that he is not removed when this Bill comes into force as an Act of Parliament. They are serving the country. They should not be removed until their term expires but that does not ... view
• 1 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to ask Question No.519/2021 to the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government: (i) What steps has the Ministry taken to ensure that Mr. Lewis Muthuri of ID No.26369584, who was allegedly abducted by security officers on 11th October, 2021 near Mulanthankari Chief’s Camp in Kibachia Village, Kiamwitari Division in Imenti North Constituency, has been located and re-united with his family? (ii) What is the status of investigations into the said abduction as reported in Meru Police Station on 13th October 2021 vide OB. No.98/13/10/2021? (iii) What measures has the Ministry ... view
• 1 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Asante, Mhe. Naibu Spika. Kwanza, Ningependa kumpongeza Rais Wetu, Mheshimiwa Uhuru Kenyatta kwa yale aliyotuletea jana. Nikimuunga Rais mkono, nashukuru wenzangu ambao wamezungumza wakimuunga Rais na nimeshangaa leo Mhe. Sankok amemsifu Rais. Hicho ni kitu ambacho singeamini kabisa kama singemwona hapa. Kama ni sauti, ningefikiria ni ya mtu mwingine. Lakini, vile Rais alizungumza jana, nashindwa mtu aliye na macho haoni na aliye na masikio, hasikii. Kwa miaka minane, kazi ambazo amezifanya zimepita zile ambazo zilifanywa kwa zaidi ya miaka mia moja. Kama ni barabara, miaka mia moja tulikuwa na barabara kilomita elfu kumi na moja. Katika Uongozi wa Rais Kenyatta ... view
