• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: orderly manner in which Members can raise those issues without calling the vote until that matter is resolved.

• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: We cannot go back unless we recommit the clauses that have already been passed.

• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I rise to support the amendment by Hon. Duale. I will be very quick. This particular amendment of the Bill seeks to create a timeline for submission of coalition party agreements. The basis of my support to Hon. Duale’s amendment is this: One, we must not legislate to create timelines that would be a hindrance to the creation of political coalitions or coalitions of political parties. When we have that clause that is creating timelines - initially, the Bill had 126 days which I am happy that the Leader of the Majority Party also recognizes that ... view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, this particular Clause, if you could allow me a minute, is designed to blackmail certain political players to get into coalitions within a specified timeline to fix politics.

People must be given the liberty to form coalitions up to 60 days. view

• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: that if Hon. Didmus Barasa’s amendment passes, the proposed amendment by Hon. Duale and myself will fall. I am seeking your guidance because in view of the ruling by the substantive Speaker, Hon. J.B. Muturi, and in view of what happened last week, we want your guidance. In case the amendment by Hon. Didmus Barasa falls, at what point does Hon. Duale and Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah move their amendments so that we do not go to the global Question? That is what happened. The global Question was put and after it was put, the Speaker ruled this morning that beyond ... view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, as I express my support to Hon. Sakwa Bunyasi’s amendment, I want to beg that when we are voting, ensure that every vote counts.

The lady from the ICT department who was here confirmed that it did not work.

• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: question that the courts have determined as to who deems you to have either promoted the ideals of another political party or who deems you to have formed or to have done whatever is provided for in the particular article.
