• 12 Mar 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. On the face of it, this is a very good Bill. It ought to have come a long time ago, pursuant to the enactment of the current Constitution. I congratulate the Chairman, Hon. Peter Lochakapong, and his team, for this well-intended Bill. If I look at the memorandum of objects and reasons of the Bill on the establishment, powers and functions to streamline those many regional bodies, it is a timely one.

• 12 Mar 2024 in National Assembly: I hope that Hon. Owen Baya, the Deputy Leader of the Majority Party, will hear our sentiments. This Bill is a precursor to the promulgation of the current Constitution. Hon. Owen Baya is still very busy consulting. The operations, activities and mandates of those regional bodies have been overlapping. The original idea of having regional bodies was superb and good . Mzee Moi and his cohort had a good idea of devolving funds through those regional bodies. Over time, because of the changing dynamics of Kenya and our constitutional framework, the functions and original mandate of some of those bodies ... view

• 12 Mar 2024 in National Assembly: The approach suggested by Hon. Baya only negates the national spirit. It is not in tandem with both the letter and the spirit of the current Constitution. It does not appreciate the diversity of the Republic of Kenya and it does not appreciate the premier nature of the Republic of Kenya. I thought, Hon. Temporary Speaker that, as a very wise man, you would have ruled Hon. Baya out of order to the extent that his creative imagination actually still lingers with the old ideas of regionalism, majimboism and other negative ideas that we shed off under the current generous ... view

• 12 Mar 2024 in National Assembly: have the Kenya Meat Commission (KMC). In 1968, and I am sure many of you were born after 1968, the GDP of the Republic of Kenya was the same as the one of South Korea. What has changed today? The GDP of South Korea is 50 times bigger than that of Kenya. In 1968, Botswana borrowed from Kenya the idea of setting up a meat commission like the KMC. Where are we today? Today, Botswana provides meat to the entire world whilst KMC is under receivership. What has taken us there? Tribalism, regionalism, corruption, nepotism and everything else that we ... view
