Hon.

Hon. Speaker, let me talk about Mary Kimonye, the nominee, not the coronavirus, China and the planes. Just like Hon. Mbadi said, let me also declare my interest. I do not know Mary but I have known her husband for many years. I have known him since he was the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Kenya Meat Commission.

other Principal Secretaries. It will be better if they adhere, as early as possible, to the provisions of Article 75(1) of the Constitution which provides as follows and this must be made clear to all public servants and State officers: “A State officer shall behave, whether in public and official life, in private life, or in association with other persons, in a manner that avoids– (a) any conflict between personal interests and public or official duties. (b) compromising any public or official interest in favour of a personal interest, or (c) demeaning the office the officer holds.” It is very ...
