• 15 Nov 2023 in National Assembly: I was recently taken aback by the conflict by the Meteorological Department and the report they gave. We the people of northern Kenya have had a very challenging history. Our area was affected by drought recently. Now we are suffering because of El Nino . We expected the President to include El Nino floods in his Speech. As we speak today, 90 per cent of our region is completely cut off from the rest of Kenya. I know we do not have time and the provision to amend this. However, we hope and appreciate that the Government has declared view

• 15 Nov 2023 in National Assembly: floods a national disaster. That is yet to bring in any meaningful gain and assistance to the region. We hope the ministries and offices concerned - the Ministry of East African Community, Arid and Semi-Arid Lands, Regional Development, the Office of the Deputy President, Office of the President and the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure - will put their house in order.

• 15 Nov 2023 in National Assembly: As we speak, the main road from Nairobi to Mwingi to Garissa and Wajir is cut off completely. Even the little tarmac we had has been washed away completely.

• 15 Nov 2023 in National Assembly: In conclusion, time for politics is over. I ask those who are still determined to rubbish everything that the Government is doing to give it an opportunity to do its mandate. When the time comes, they will get an opportunity to interrogate and evaluate the performance.

• 15 Nov 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, if we rubbish everything that the Government does, I can assure you that there will be no need for elections. Allow them to function.

I support the President’s Speech. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
