• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I can assure you that even the ladies in this House can slap me and I will not slap them. I am a very peaceful man. So, I want to tell Fatuma that I do not play the league of last week. So, you can shout and I will not touch you, but you must live to the decorum of the House. Yesterday and even today, the Speaker said that when you enter the Chamber, you must behave like a Member of Parliament. If you want to speak, you should ask the Speaker to give you a chance. ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Pukose has no business here. We have to debate this important Motion. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to support the Report of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. I want to go on record that I know three or four of these personalities. They are career diplomats. In line with the provisions of the Constitution and the Public Appointment (Parliamentary Approval) Act of 2011, the Committee subjected all of them to the statutory requirements in terms of qualifications, tax compliance, integrity through the EACC, certificate of good conduct from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Ambassador Yonga is a career diplomat. I know her because she has been in the Ministry. At one time, she was the Liaison Officer between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and the National Assembly. Until Ambassador Barine’s appointment, he was the Parliamentary Liaison Officer and a career diplomat who was the link between the Office of the Speaker, Office of the Clerk and my office. He made sure that there is synergy between Parliament, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and our diplomatic stations outside this country. He is a man whom I know. He ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: The other person, whom I have worked with in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and Parliament is Ambassador Purity Muhindi as Director of various desks in the Ministry. She is now going to Dakar, Senegal. She is also very polished and a renowned diplomat whom I am sure will serve the people of Kenya wherever she goes. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Ms. Halima Abdille Mohamud is a former Senator in the 11th Parliament. She is a very young brilliant lady from the part of the world that I come from in the north. We want to thank the President for showing confidence in the young people of our country. Days are gone when diplomats used to be grey-haired. We want to have young diplomats. This started with President Uhuru Kenyatta. I remember our current Ambassador in Zambia is also a very young lady. We approved her name in 2013. Ms. Halima joins the league of the young diplomats whom we have ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Ambassador Andrew Maina is also a career diplomat. I am sure he will serve us well. Unlike last time when there was an issue, I really want to ask colleagues that when we are given an opportunity to vet nominees, we must comply with the law, even if that person is related you. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I want the Chair of the Committee to listen to me. If what is in the Report is true that the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) did not submit a response to confirm whether the six nominees were tax compliant, then we must indict the leadership of KRA. The KRA, like the EACC and the DCI, must write a confidential letter to the Committee and say that the individuals are tax compliant or not. If the Committee says that the six nominees brought their tax compliance certificate, how can you authenticate those documents? The new Director-General of the KRA must listen ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: want the Clerk to write to the KRA even as we approve the nominees, within the next two days, to ask him to bring a confidential letter. We do not want to approve nominees and then we are later told that one of them has tax issues and that he or she is being taken to court. Parliament will be indicted in such a situation. So, institutions that are under obligation to give reports when vetting is being done should not take their work lightly. We cannot indict the nominees because that is a communication between the Office of the ... view
