• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Yes. Thank you so much. view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. As my able Chairman has just said, this nominee appeared before the Committee and we interviewed him. We found that he is fit going by his records, experience and personal integrity in the society, including his discipline. He has served in the military service for a long time. Rising from a Cadet Officer to Lieutenant Colonel is not an easy task. He must have exhibited very strong capabilities to be able to rise to that level. A Lieutenant Colonel is a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and somebody who is ... view
• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I second. I would like to ask Members to approve Lt. Col. (Rtd) Githiri because he is the right candidate. view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am not a Member of this Committee, but I concur with their amendments, specifically the one the Committee Chair has just spoken about. In the armed forces, soldiers go through very serious trauma, especially when there is an attack. I think a period of 90 days is okay. A soldier can hurriedly want to leave the service without thinking so much. So, 90 days can allow him or her to decide or get counselling. He or she can reverse his or her decision. When somebody is trained for a long time, it is not easy ... view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I also support and congratulate the Committee for being bold enough. I want to make some comments on the issue of assets. For some time now, we have had issues with assets, especially equipment for the KDF and even the police. There is always a problem when it comes to acquisition and the Committee should investigate that. There are rumours that what we acquire as equipment for our Defence 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. view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Forces are of very low standard. Now that we are faced with threats from our borders, we need to have good equipment to protect Kenyans and our boundaries. If you look at the National Police Service, a number of aircraft were bought recently, but they have kept on crashing. In fact, some Members of Parliament and dignitaries avoid flying aboard the aircraft acquired by the National Police Service. With regard to the Defence Forces, l urge the Committee to be vigilant on this matter. I support. view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I thank Hon. Njuki for bringing this Bill to this House. I support it. Just like my colleagues have done, I support the idea that the Kenyatta Mausoleum should be opened to the public. This is because Jomo Kenyatta was a great person. Besides fighting for Independence, he laid the foundation for our country after independence. Colonialists feared that this country would go to the dogs. They thought that Africans cannot govern themselves. Kenyatta and his team made sure that they dispelled those rumours and bad wishes by laying the ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: other members of the public to know that the mausoleum contains all the things that he used, for example, his walking stick, shoes, the fly whisk and the rings that he used to wear. view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: I was very young when he died in 1978. I had never seen him physically. I only used to see him on television and read about him in newspapers. I was in Class Seven when he died on 22nd August, 1978, but I still want to know where he was buried. If I still want to know more about Mzee Kenyatta, what about children in primary, secondary or university and other Kenyans out there? So, I support this Bill. The mausoleum should be made public and we charge a fee to anybody who wants to visit the place. Thank you, ... view
• 20 Sep 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. As the Members have said, we have had a very bad financial year as regards the NG-CDF issues, especially after the case was taken to court. From February to date, we have not had a smooth ride regarding NG-CDF disbursements. I have made a lot of promises to the people of Samburu North, but I am unable to fulfil them because of the delay in disbursement of funds. The Chairman should come back this afternoon and tell us what we should do about the staff. They have not been paid for ... view
