• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Therefore, I urge Members to agree that the matter needs to rest at this stage. view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of myself, my family, the people of Kandara and the people of Murang’a, I join you in passing my condolences to the Matiba’s widow, Edith Matiba, the family and friends of the Matiba family. We managed as a team from Murang’a to visit the Matiba family yesterday and I can confirm that the family is standing strong. It is not a secret that Hon. Matiba suffered serious illness when he was detained without trial. It is also clear to all of us that Mr. Matiba was a politician. It is quite right and in ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Mr. Matiba has not died in vain. Some of the freedom we are enjoying in the Constitution could not have been attained without the struggle of many Kenyans, some of whom are still alive. Somebody has mentioned Mr. Charles Rubia. He comes from my constituency. We have people like Bildad Kaggia whose families have not been looked after. The struggle has no relation with the lifestyles they are leading. There are many families that require and demand that if we are speaking as Kenyans and appreciate the struggle they put up, we should revisit those families and see whether they ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: The compensation issue is still pending and the judgement was not attained easily. There was a very long period. Matiba’s lawyer even asked us to intervene, but I am happy the 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
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Judiciary, though fairly late, passed a judgement. I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that the relevant Departmental Committee should expedite that payment not just for Mr. Matiba but for many other people who went through the struggle, not for themselves but for this country. Therefore, we must see to it that those judgements are enforced. If we cannot do that, then we will have no moral authority to even speak. Julius Malema said some very difficult things. Those questions could be relevant for us as a country during the burial of Mr. Matiba. That is not politicising ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I rise to second the Report presented to the House by the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, the observations that he has made and the reasons that he has given, I want to confirm that we deliberated at length on the observations that the Chairman has listed. We were at pains to arrive at that decision. May I add that this particular vetting would have presented the Committee and the House with an opportunity to examine the law as it is to address the state of the Judiciary. However, ... view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I was consulting Hon. Wangari. I am very proud of two women plus myself, elected from Murang’a County. There is something I regularly remind the House – that we must have attained the two-thirds gender rule. Hon. Speaker, thank you for allowing me to contribute to this Motion. There are three things that sadden me about the events that preceded this Report. The cases that occurred at KNH are not cases that, as a country, we can be proud of. I have heard some of my colleagues The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A ... view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: say that we should not condemn the hospital. But we must put a strong voice and, in some cases, condemn the actions or negligence of workers at the hospital. I agree with them entirely. Unless we put our minds and thoughts where the events and mistakes occurred, we might not be able to prevent another occurrence of similar nature at KNH. Being a referral hospital, KNH must start ensuring that the services it is offering, especially professional services meet the status of a referral hospital. Every year, Kenyans allocate KNH a budget. Notwithstanding the inadequacies of that budget, we also ... view
