6 Jun 2017 in National Assembly:
No! Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not speak for NASA. I speak for Jubilee. So, if she wants to speak about Wavinya Ndeti, it is quite in order. You will have your time. I am talking about my fellow Jubilee nominees, and mark my words, Inshallah, two women, Dr. Joyce Laboso and Ms. Anne Wambui Waiguru will be Governors. In the Senate, Jubilee will produce the first two women Senators, that is, Ms. Susan Kihika and Hon. Margaret Kamar. Ms. Kihika is a daughter of a very prominent octogenarian politician from Nakuru.

6 Jun 2017 in National Assembly:
I am sure everybody here had their mother play a very big role in their life. I am a living example. Secondly, when President Obama came to Kenya he said that you cannot have a team that is always seated on the benches and not playing in the field. The women leaders in this country must be given their space as provided for in the Constitution. The President, who is also our party leader, is committed to seeing that happen. I know President Uhuru Kenyatta will append his signature on this law. He could do that now or during the ...

31 May 2017 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, as I contribute to the election of Members to the EALA, it has taken the leadership of the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) to read the law and waste a lot of time of the House to come and withdraw an amendment. The law, Rule 6 is very clear. If you have three nominees, you bring nine. If you have four, you bring 12. I am very happy that the men in the Senate who are from CORD were with me in this House. We had the likes of Senators Anyang’-Nyong’o, James Orengo, Johnstone Muthama, David ...

31 May 2017 in National Assembly:
I am saying it. You had your time. It is good to listen to “ Baba” . I also listen to President Uhuru Kenyatta but I also read and tell him: “Mr. President, this is not the right law.” However, you come here in the morning and say: “ Baba sent me.” You come back in the afternoon and say: “ Baba sent me.” My friend, at that rate, you will not go to heaven. If it is about loyalty to “ Baba”, some of us were more loyal to “ Baba” in 2007. The electronic version of the Official ...

We have wasted time. We changed the rule and this House approved the rules and they were gazetted. The election of EALA was to be held between 23rd and 25th this month. So, as we sit here, the deadline for the election was on 25th May 2017. So, even if we approve this Report as per the Senate, the Committee must go back, sit and gazette a new date.

Secondly, and more fundamental, according to the timelines that they have approved, gazetted and signed by the two presiding officers, the last day for the timelines is 2nd June, which is on Friday, and there is no sitting of the House. So, even if you withdraw your amendment at this hour, you are still in high seas. You are in the middle of the sea with no life saver. With the deadline of 15th June that we have, I do not foresee--- Therefore, even if we pass this Report, the Committee of Hon. Chepkong’a, Hon. Kato, Hon. Maanzo, Hon. Wamunyinyi, ...
