• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I differ with my colleagues. I believe in the idea that variety of ideas come from mixed group of people. Concentration of only Luhyas will result in one point of view. In view of this, I oppose this amendment. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Is it in order for us to debate these amendments when the Chair has disowned them? Will it be in order if this House stops debate on these amendments probably for further consultation? If necessary they should be reverted back to the Committee because it is working under delegated authority by this House. view
• 13 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Is it in order for us to continue debate on these amendments when they have been disowned by the person this House expects to be the initiator? view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Petition. My constituency is within close proximity to Moyale Town. It is a 20 minutes’ drive from Moyale Town. I rely on the same power that Moyale Town relies on. As raised by the Member for Moyale, it is a hotspot area that has a lot of insecurity-related issues due to its proximity to the Ethiopian border. As a result, so many lives were lost. An increase in the stress levels has been noted in that area. This is coupled by lack of electricity, which has led to high losses incurred ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the adoption of this Report. Indeed, I am proud of being an African. We are all proud of being Members of Pan-African Parliament. It is very rare to get such a platform where 250 Members from 50 African States come together to deliberate on issues that affect different countries. First, I want to request Members who represent us in Pan-African Parliament to be fully available when we are discussing such an important Report. It is not a secret that we are an oral community and a people with a poor reading culture. ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: only inculcate some sense of ownership for us but rather, also better the understanding on the deliberations that are made at Pan-African Parliament. I have no doubt you will give directions that will put those Members on performance targets. How much do they cascade down information deliberated at the Pan African Parliament to Members at the Kenya National Assembly and the Senate? That said; we appreciate their legislative, advisory and consultative role. I have no doubt that their deliberations are really wonderful. The coordination and harmonisation role played by Pan-African Parliament is unique. Indeed, besides bringing African together, we have ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: One issue that was well raised in that report is that of climate change, which is really affecting the entire Africa. I have no doubt that human behaviour is highly contributing to global climate change. Consequently, it is necessary for Members to create a desk that will deal with the different states in Africa and come up with a common position that will not only help us adopt or come up with good adaptation policy, but reading from the same script as regards climate change. We are pastoral communities. We have border issues together. Of course, we like moving from ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Another issue that is well articulated in the Report is that of health. This affects the entire African states. Kenya is uniquely placed. This is one country that has high maternal mortality rates. For example, if you look at Mandera County, I can assure you that it has the highest maternal mortality rates in the country. It is even worse than Somalia. That way, we need to come up with favourable policies that will help us improve health related issues and mortality rates as a result of health. It was well said by the Member for Gilgil. I can assure ... view
• 9 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Corruption is well raised in the Report. Of course, most continents look down at Africa because of our corruption level. We have a lot of similarities when you look at African states in terms of corruption. It is this House that will help us come together to bring an amicable solution to this issue. Indeed, our country is one of the worst hit countries. Sometimes, we really feel that charity begins at home. It is us that will not only come with favourable policies that will reduce the level of corruption, but we will go by the steps of His ... view
