• 22 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: I rise to support this. I think it is very timely. view
• 22 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Can I be given a minute because I have seriously been interrupted. view
• 22 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: What we shall ask for is prudent expenditure of the money as soon as taxes are adjusted and the Government gets the required money. The Government must spend the money as per the requirement of the law. We have heard cases where even money for COVID-19 has been misplaced, mismanaged, or chewed by a few individuals. This should not be entertained. Those who have stolen COVID-19 money, it is becoming too late for Kenyans to hear of what shall be done to them. With that, I support the Bill. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also rise to add my voice to the IFMIS system issue. I think this Statement is timely. Any system that is put in place is there for the sake of improving efficiency, transparency and for the betterment of the users of that system. But since IFMIS came on board, I think the system is good but some of the users of this IFMIS manipulate it and others use it for other purposes. It has become an animal that most of the people who wait for money through that system fear. For instance, when ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support, but with some comments here and there. To start with, when we talk about the health services, do we mean the level 2, 3 or level 5 hospitals that are there? Are we to give more money to those who have the hospitals or does it mean that the hospitals are not there hence we give money to develop them? For those who have them, what will they do if they are not given adequate money to maintain and run the hospitals? For those who do not have the hospitals ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: On the land index, what I think has brought a lot of debate in the counties, up to today, I do not understand the way it has finally been done. This is because the one shilling, one kilometre, one vote and one person story has been going on continuously. Ultimately, we are trying to depend on money that we do not have and money we do not know if we are going to get. We are saying that after the Kshs316 billion, some money will come later. We do not know whether our economy is going to be very bad ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: While the Senate had one-and-half years to look at this formula before it came here, I do not understand why we cannot be given, at least, two weeks, to debate it. Unfortunately, I hear that because we will not be able to raise two-thirds, just like for the gender issue, ultimately, we shall pass it. But we have to keep records that, although we are not able to raise that threshold, we must have our input seriously recommended. This is a House of records so that in future, when we refer to the Hansard, we will know the issues, and ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Look at a parameter like water, which is not there. About 80 per cent of this country is arid and semi-arid land. The most limiting factor in terms of livelihood and in terms of development of everything is water. What the ASAL people would have seriously requested for a high percentage to be given to water. Leave alone giving it a high percentage, it is not there in the formula. So, the whole thing is very unfortunate. It has taken one-and-half years to reach this stage. The counties are starving and they need money. Unfortunately, we cannot take a lot ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I stand to congratulate the new incoming Leader of the Majority Party and wish him the best in his endeavors. On the other hand, sincerely, I have known Hon. Duale for a very long time before even he became an MP. He has always been a performer even outside Parliament. Most people have talked about his performance in Parliament, but I have known him outside Parliament before he became an MP and he has always been a performer. Maybe, this is a blessing in disguise for Hon. Duale. He should take it as a blessing ... view
• 14 Apr 2020 in National Assembly: I thank you, Hon. Speaker. The opportunity has just come to me. Maybe, God is saying something. view
