• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. From the outset, I support the Petition. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Corruption is not only embezzlement of funds, but it is also denying some regions what is due to them. Removing Taita Taveta County from the Equalisation Fund is like embezzling funds for roads, health, electricity and water meant for the people. Right now, even though Taita Taveta has boreholes, the area is covered by minerals. Some of the minerals are poisonous. Even as we speak, there are areas where people walk for almost 20 kilometres to fetch water. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: The area is hilly and the roads are pathetic. We were shocked that amongst the 14 areas that were pointed out to be beneficiaries of the Equalisation Fund, Taita Taveta is the only that was removed from the list. The people who hold offices should not use their offices to deny others. The Petition by Hon. Mwashako is very clear that what the office holders are doing is unconstitutional. In Mwatate Constituency, we have problems of wildlife conflict and it is not yet finalised. We have problems of roads, the entire region does not have electricity, water is a big ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Equalisation Fund, which was distributed in 2013/2014 has not yet been implemented. There are some projects which have not yet been done. Before they are finished, the CRA had already removed Taita Taveta. This implies that these projects are going to be white elephants. I am supporting this petition and I am requesting the committee concerned to be faster… view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Petition. I also neighbour Tsavo East and Tsavo West. As we speak, the former man-eater lions have come up to the hills. They have murdered very many dairy cattle and this has never happened before. The elephants are making some of the students in my constituency not to go to school. This has really affected my constituency. As we speak, one of the areas is hit by hunger simply because lions, buffaloes and elephants are in my constituency. We are urging the Ministry in charge to consider compensating our constituents. ... view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: we are really suffering. Therefore, we are requesting the Ministry concerned to move faster so that they compensate the people of Kenya who are affected. I do not need to talk much but thank you for giving me this opportunity. view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker… view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I want to support the amendment. view
• 15 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I want to contribute to the first Petition by Hon. Jeremiah Kioni. I support it because the Gazette Notice on hardship areas needs to be done countrywide. view
• 15 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Mwatate Sub-County which is in my county, was declared a hardship area, but it is very interesting. You will find that within the same area, there is a secondary school and a primary school. But teachers in the primary school do not get hardship allowance but those in secondary school get. I have five wards in Mwatate Constituency. Rong’e Ward is an area which is harder than these other wards, but teachers do not get the hardship allowance. Posting teachers to that ward is very difficult because most of them want to leave that area to go to where others ... view
