• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: We must enrich democracy. On our side, we have the most rebellious Members. We have never de-whipped them. They went and campaigned for KANU. We told them that it was their right. The problem we have and need to address and I agree with Hon. Jamleck, is to ultimately amend the Standing Orders. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Under the Constitution, we have three fundamental functions: to oversee, represent and legislate. Oversight falls within Committees. When you deny a Member of this House, whether he is Hon. Ken Obura, Hon. Duale, Hon. Keter or Hon. Mwashetani you deny him that chance. I am speaking because I was a victim of this circumstance in the last Parliament. I must speak for the voiceless. We cannot have the cake and eat it. We cannot claim to be a democratic party and at the same time--- I come from a region where the big boys do not exit. Just because Hon. ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I do not want to join a party where there is no freedom. That is why I ended up forming URP then came to Jubilee. We have a lot of freedom among our membership. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Let us not take Kenya to the dark days. Make an interpretation on Standing Order No.176. If you have not received any letter and Hon. Chris Wamalwa as a ranking Member of FORD (K) --- I heard the party leader of FORD (K), a man I respect, today is being denied a venue in Muliro Gardens. The Luyha nation must wake up. How can you stop your son from holding a meeting? How? How can you stop your own son from holding a Kamkunji ? Moses Wentangula has been stopped from holding a kamkunji in Muliro Gardens! That is not ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to move that the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) (No. 4) (National Assembly Bill No. 38 of 2015) be read a Second Time. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: The principal object of this Bill is to amend the Constitution to ensure that the membership of the National Assembly and the Senate conforms to the two-thirds gender principle as provided for in Article 81(b) of the Constitution. There are a number of constitutional amendment Bills called “Duale 1” “Duale 2” and “Duale 3”. I have decided to be the Mover of this Bill primarily because I am the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party and I must take the lead in ensuring that the women of Kenya achieve their rights within the Constitution. Secondly, I have five sons and ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: The outcome of this process was the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill. Several taskforces were set up. Meetings and dinners were held by the women caucus and the other players and this led to the outcome of the Bill before us this afternoon, which is the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) (No. 4) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 38 of 2015) which was read on 30th July, 2015 noting that public participation and the 90 days deadline for constitutional Bills has now matured. What are the arguments before I go to the specifics of the Bill? This Bill is gender neutral. ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I also want to make it very clear that this Bill does not require a referendum. Some people argue that it will be expensive to implement this Bill once passed into law because the number of Members of Parliament will increase. Democracy and governance is very expensive everywhere in the world. There is no price tag on leadership, governance and on the route to achieving democratic ideals. This Bill protects the gains of women in the Constitution. The provisions of this Bill have been tested in the county assemblies. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Clause 1 of the Bill is the Short Title. As you said, it is a small Bill with a short title. Clause 2 provides for the way the various items should be applied during the general election. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Clauses 4 and 5 are very important because they seek to amend Articles 97 and 98 of the Constitution to ensure that both Houses of Parliament comply with the two-thirds gender principle by allocating special seats proportional to the number of seats won by each political party. A determination as to how many special seats go to which party should be done after the general election. This Bill has also created a sunset clause of 20 years in the amendment with the option of an extension for one further fixed term of 10 years. That is for those who will ... view
