• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: This Bill is straightforward and simple but with very serious constitutional ramifications. The Bill has four clauses. Clause 1 of the Bill deals with the short title. Clause 2 of the Bill seeks to amend Article 90 of the Constitution which deals with allocation of party lists in order to provide that the 12 Members that parliamentary political parties nominate to the National Assembly, one being a woman and another from the male gender and others representing the youth, people with disabilities, conform to the criterion that will be used in the two-thirds gender principle. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Clause 3 of the Bill seeks to amend Article 97 of the Constitution which provides for the membership of the National Assembly by providing that the National Assembly shall consist of a number of special seat members necessary to ensure that no more than two-thirds of the membership of the National Assembly represents single or one side of the gender. The special seats to the National Assembly, if we use the numbers that we have today… I was in the 10th Parliament and progressively Kenyans are electing women even from some of the most conservative communities. Today, we have Hon. ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Each one of us came to this world, of course, through procreation and the only people who carried us for nine months and brought us up as we grew in life are our mothers. I am sure each man sitting here, each Member of Parliament sitting here has a special place for his mother, daughter, wife and sister. And I am sure when reality dawns on us; we will pass this Bill with the required numbers. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: The Bill also amends Article 98 of the Constitution touching on the membership of the Senate. Today, with the numbers we have in the Senate, we only require two senators to be nominated for it to comply with Article 81(b) of the Constitution. I am sure in 2022 the people will give us not less than five more women senators. So, we will not have a problem with the Senate. I am sure in 2022 the people of Kenya will give us another extra 10 women single constituency Members of Parliament. So, we will end up giving the special seats ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I am sure of the many Bills that came to this House; this is one of the most simple Bills. It is a Bill that will absolutely not have a serious implication on the wage bill. To implement the Constitution, there must be some cost implications. We are talking about Kshs282 million. How many billions of shillings has the Public Accounts Committee in the 2015/2016 Report reported lost through corruption? Those who want to expound the argument that we are increasing the wage bill, should know that democracy and governance are always very expensive. The electronic version of the Official ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the number of women leaders in the 11th Parliament were 84 whereas in the 12th Parliament, there are 97 women leaders in both Houses signifying a growth in women representation. This House has 23 women representing various constituencies compared to 21 women in the 11th Parliament. The role of women in governance cannot be overstated. I am glad that we have come this far in women empowerment. This Bill will add more thrust towards the growth of women empowerment following great countries such as Rwanda. Recently, our neighbour across, Ethiopia, decided to have a woman President, a lady ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I am not a Democrat. I do not support the Democrats in the USA; I support the Republicans because of specific reasons. Republicans believe in family values. You might have issues with Trump, but he is my candidate. They believe in upholding family values. They do not believe in lesbianism, gayism and all that. They believe in the word of God. Let me quote what Hillary Clinton, the former presidential candidate said. She said women are the largest untapped reservoir in the world. People talk about minerals and other issues but today, the President has nominated women to key ministries ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: A lot of questions have been asked. The name “Duale” does not belong to me, neither does it belong to my father, it belongs to my great grandfather. You people can play around with my name “Aden” but on behalf of my great grandfather, the Bill is Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill but out there, everywhere people say “the Duale Bill”. This name is very special. The women of this House, I am sure Hon. Mbadi will agree with me, from our political parties, stood with us when we needed them. When I joined politics, in the Chamber where the ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I ask colleagues that let us go into the annals of history that the 12 Parliament is the House that actualised the implementation of Article 81(b) and Article 27(6) and (8) of the Constitution. I am a product of an old lady in Garissa who happens to be my mother. I have said it many times. I am doing all these because of my mum. I am what I am today with the cross of the Almighty God, but also because of the role my mother played in bringing me up. I am sure there are many people here who ... view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
