• 15 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to inform my good friend, Hon. Wafula Wamunyinyi, that these services are offered freely at the Centre for Parliamentary Studies. view
• 15 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a straightforward Motion. I want to thank the Mover. He has already answered some of the questions that we have been asking, like why money allocated to respective constituencies has not been released. The answer that he has offered explains the reasons. And we generally understand that there is a bit of a cash crunch. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 15 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: We are all familiar with the reason the Fund was created. It is high time we made sure it functions in line with the Constitution and the NG-CDF Act. Sometimes there are exceptional challenges on the role of a Member of Parliament. This is one thing that we should clarify as much as possible. Does the Member of Parliament as a patron have a day-to-day role in the management of NG-CDF Committees? The answer is no. The law is very clear. Attempts by hon. Members to perform the functions of NG-CDF Committee should cease. We should allow NG-CDF Committees to ... view
• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. While appreciating what the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security has done, there is something we must voice, as Members of Parliament. The governance structure we have is that members of the Executive are outside Parliament. Chairpersons are left with a task of explaining to the House and the Kenyan public Statements and Questions that they may not be really privy to. In the end, the Chairman and Parliament are blamed. view

• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: I suggest that it is high time Chairs of committee put their feet down and take to task Cabinet Secretaries and other senior Government officials who give a bad image to the Government by not responding to Questions and Statements. I imagine that a Statement related to security is normally urgent and requires a lot of due diligence. The Chairman is here and I am surprised the Members are asking for two weeks. But that is their right. A Statement related to security is urgent. Therefore, in future, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security or ... view

• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I thank the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. The arrest of Mr. Yassin Juma was malicious, offensive and capricious to the extent that up to now, even after his release, Yassin Juma was not clearly told the offence that he committed. One thing that really surprises me is that this happens in an era of serious diplomatic engagement and globalisation. Where this arrest took place is in a neighbouring state where we have a lot of institutional linkages like Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the African Union (AU) and many ... view
