13 Jun 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, every year we allocate huge resources to tourism. A city called Istanbul receives 30 million tourists a year and when we receive 1.1 million tourists in Kenya, we get excited. We have all it takes to bring visitors to this country. In fact, the Ushanga Initiative is going to empower a lot of women at the grassroots. I was told that the Cabinet Secretary for Tourism opposed this initiative. This House has given tax rebates to people who build hotels. They import materials and everything. Whatever we do as Parliament in terms of taxation must be ...

My colleagues, Hon. Wamalwa and Hon. Leshoomo have said it all. We are allocating this money for the young men and women at the NYS. This House is under obligation not to punish those young men and women whom the media uses everyday as a screen shot in discussing corruption. The Vice-Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare is not even listening to me.

I agree with the Member for Tongaren that there are some constituencies which did not get the NYS cohort. There are many colleagues who did not benefit from that system. Let us talk about it before Hon. (Dr.) Eseli goes to court. We do not want him to go to court. Following the handshake, we want the next cohort to be given to constituencies which did not benefit last time. I am sure the work which the young men and women are doing, even in the cohorts, has changed their lives. Part of the Savings and Credit Co-operative Organisation (SACCO) ...

When my friend talks about the NYS and corruption, we do not want to go back to history. There are many issues. So, let us move this country forward. Let us pick from where the handshake started. If we go back to historical injustices, we will talk until the cows come back home.

13 Jun 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, these are interesting times. People are supporting gender when they have just killed the budget of the young people of this country. So, this House must agree on how to protect the mother yet kill the child. The Committee of Supply is a very serious legislative procedure.

As a person who speaks for the Executive, I want to confirm, on record, that the purported ...
