Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.24(6), the thanks of the House be recorded for the exposition of public policy contained in the Address of the President delivered on Monday 6th October, 2014 laid on the Table of the House today Tuesday, 14th October, 2014. view
• 14 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I need to make a Statement regarding the Committee on General Oversight that met this morning. Hon. Speaker, as you are aware, the House amended the National Assembly Standing Orders to operationalise Article 153(3) of the Constitution, and allowed the appearance of Cabinet Secretaries before the Committee on General Oversight as required by Standing Order No.170E. I prepared and availed the agenda of the Committee meeting last week. Indeed, the Committee had its first meeting today, Tuesday 14th October, 2014. However, because of communication breakdown, and possible problems of perception towards the operations of the Committee, two CSs ... view
• 14 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: officers who accompanied the Cabinet Secretaries, were surprised by the absence of the Mace and the usual strict procedures associated with the plenary of the House. This is, therefore, to tell all Members of Parliament that we should be united in promoting the values of the Constitution and constitutionality. Hon. Speaker, I want to make it very clear that the Committee on General Oversight is like any other committee of this House and this morning we even had a chance to sit at County Hall, which can accommodate more than 150 Members of Parliament. What we did this morning was ... view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, I want to confirm that I am not a recruit of NIS, and secondly I have not applied to be a recruit. I want him to withdraw, because the only job I have is that of the Member for Garissa Township and Leader of the Majority Party; he is saying I can be an easy target for a recruit. view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker. I beg to move the following Procedural Motion:- THAT, this House do now adjourn. This will give hon. Members time to look at the reports that have been laid before this House for our action at our meeting this afternoon. I request hon. Katoo Ole Metito to second the Procedural Motion. view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I stand to support this Motion and a report that is dealing with the Director-General of the NIS. Also, I want to thank the Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations for the report. I participated in the enactment of the NSIS Act, 2012; it is a great thing today, more than ever, that the person at the helm of the NIS has to go through parliamentary vetting and approval. That is the gist of the matter and these are the benefits of the new Constitution. view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: I do not want to praise Gen. Wachira Kameru. He has a serious job ahead of him. He must re-organise the NIS. He must make sure that Kenya is safe from the threat of Al Shabaab, local gangs, drug dealers and money launderers. Never again will we see the President sinking a ship with its cargo. He must provide intelligence to detect a similar ship before it arrives in Kenya. Let us not cheat ourselves. Under the Jubilee leadership, serious questions were raised on security agencies in our country, including the NIS. We had a spate of attacks; some of ... view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: General Wachira should not be judged on the basis of his community. He should not be judged on the basis of the region he comes from. He should be judged on the basis of his CV and experience. He was instrumental in the invasion of Somalia by the KDF. We see our Forces in Somalia, and the intelligence from him as the Director Military Intelligence in the KDF--- Gen. Wachira provided the necessary intelligence and infrastructure for our forces to capture Kismayu and to fight off the threat of Al Shabaab. Being the Director-General of the NIS is not a ... view
• 10 Sep 2014 in National Assembly: He is answerable to Parliament and we will expect him to give the President the best intelligence reports that will not be biased. We expect him to take the NIS to a greater height. For a long time the NIS, in the eyes of Kenyans, has been wanting. We expect Gen. Wachira to bring a fundamental shift and changes to this institution. The NIS should not preoccupy itself with the activities of politicians. It should not engage in asking questions like: where does the Member for Muhoroni stay? Has he met hon. Duale? Is he dining with the Jubilee Coalition? ... view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Papers on the Table:- view
