• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to disagree with Hon. Shamalla. It should be an infertile person and not a couple. I disagree even with Sankok in what he said. I agree with what Hon. Millie has said. It could be a widow and the donor may have been the husband who kept the sperm in a sperm bank to be used at a later date. So what happens? Can they not use it because the donor is not alive? I do not agree with that. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: I oppose it. When a person can make a decision in voting and everything, he is an adult at the age of 18. So, I do not think it should be changed. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: No. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: If we have changed Clause 34 from 18 years to 21 years, should the Chairperson not have moved the information to “below the age of 18 years” to be “to below the age of 21”? Should it not have been done that way? So, I request the Chair to make that amendment. Thank you, Chair. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to disagree with Hon. Sankok and Hon. Millie and agree with Hon. Owino of Ndhiwa. In all our laws, there is never a minimum sentence unless we now start amending all the laws. view
• 17 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Chairlady, I agree with Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal. Clause 43 (d) states thus that “no gametes or embryos shall be kept in storage for longer than the statutory storage period.” The (cb) is incomplete contrast to what (d) is. So, it should be completely removed from Hon. Shamalla’s amendment because it will be in conflict with (d). view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to comment on the first Petition by Hon. Owen Baya. It regards Oil Libya. Our family has been a dealer with Oil Libya for 50 years. I even have a property I have leased to Oil Libya. I was never aware that this kind of thing could happen. What normally happens is that when any oil company leases a station from you, they keep the title for 20 years and pay you every five years. Apparently in this Petition, it looks like the lady, Teresa, was selling the property to Oil Libya. The ... view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is not a point of intervention. The previous Speaker had asked us to request for opportunity to contribute by pressing intervention. That is why I did that. view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: No. I asked the Clerks-at-the-Table, and they told me that I have not. view
• 12 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to talk about the first Petition on autoimmune diseases. Many people have Lupus where your body's immune system attacks your own tissues and the multiple sclerosis (MS) where the protective cover is removed by the immune system. So, I support and wish the NHIF will cater for the people who suffer from those diseases. On the second Petition, I will not say whether I am supporting it or not. Hon. Sabina Chege has raised a few issues and she has mentioned Meru County. We are aware that there are many issues with the coffee ... view
