19 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
I am on a point of order. This is the problem of not reading the Standing Orders. We need to interrogate our Standing Orders. The matter Hon. Jakoyo has raised is true. My counterpart, the Leader of the Minority Party, was not in the House last Thursday. The Members whose names we are approving this afternoon are the same Members. Therefore, there are no new Members. Secondly, there is no Committee sitting outside Parliament. Even the Joint Select Committee is sitting within the precincts of Parliament. Hon. Members are not in Safari Park. They were there for only one day. ...

19 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
The matter before us is serious. The issues concerning the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) that took some of our colleagues to the streets are now back to Parliament. It is now within the confines of the leadership of both Houses. Whether it is under the Joint Select Committee or the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, the matter is with us. The two Committees can sit. We will sit in the House Business Committee (HBC) and sort out this issue. The matter before us is bigger than our politics within Committees. We have given Hon. James Orengo ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, this Motion was debated conclusively and what now remains is for us to conclude. My prayer to the Whips and the leadership is that they will not withdraw Members again and bring them back. It is allowed in the Standing Orders, but it is not good work. So, I ask my colleagues that next time, we hope these colleagues will serve for the remaining part of the Session until 2017. I beg to reply.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, yes, we fear authority. Imagine who is talking. If Baba comes through that door, Hon. Jakoyo will collapse. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

He will stop speaking. So, it is better to know that all of us respect the leadership we have. I have been in that party with Hon. Jakoyo. When Baba coughs, some of us kneel down.

19 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
I want him to oppose the Report. Yes, we respect and fear authority, but this is one man who is elected because of fear. He literally kneels down for Baba . I used to kneel down for Baba sometimes back. So, all of us fear authority.

19 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have a lot of respect for Hon. Wamalwa. Is he in order to interfere with the way I communicate with the Almighty God? His leadership and him do not pray; they do not know how a church or a mosque looks like. He should just approach me with some courtesy and tell me because I am a man of prayer. I pray for the nation and I will continue doing that.

19 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you will excuse me from the five- minute rule because of the position I hold in this House and as per the Standing Orders. First, I want to thank Hon. Chris Wamalwa. He has brought many issues but on this one, I agree with him. It is a serious matter and I want to thank him because we must deal with it. Secondly, this House should not be a House of lamentation. This House is under obligation to set up a Select Committee, if it feels the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology did not ...
