• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Petition. I ask the Chairperson, Hon. Kabinga, that as they consider this Petition, they should also seriously look into how the Government can regulate the agents who send our young ladies and men to Saudi Arabia, so that if a person gets harassed or tortured anywhere in Saudi Arabia, then the agent who sent them there should be held culpable back here at home. The problem is with the agents who send our children to people that they know will mistreat them and end up doing nothing. But more so, ... view

• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Indeed, I agree with you. I was proposing to the Member for Nyando that this is something that we should consider legislating on. It is true that many constituencies and county offices are suffering because of penalties that are not occasioned by delays by our constituencies and county managers, but delays in release of the Exchequer by the National Treasury. The Finance Bill and the amendments to it that the Committee brought last week and we debated is something the Member of Nyando should consider.

• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank the Chairperson of the Committee for the response that I see has been signed by the Cabinet Secretary Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government, Fred Matiangi.

• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I can hear Hon. Chris Wakhungu Wamalwa, the incoming Governor of Trans Nzoia, saying that he is only a conveyor. As much as we cannot punish the conveyor or the messenger, he must also respond to the House in a manner that is in line with our own procedures and precedents.

It is the same notorious Cabinet Secretary who invited himself to a Committee meeting, purported to carry out lifestyle audit on the Deputy President without tabling any iota of evidence. If we allow cabinet secretaries and anybody else, including myself, to use this House or to use Committees of the House to advance political shenanigans, we shall be doing this country and the people of Kenya a lot of injustice. view
