• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, thank you for your indulgence. I honestly sympathise with Hon. Gikaria, the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Energy. As the Majority Whip has said, if you listened to the issues Hon. Duale has raised in his Request for a Statement today, some are very weighty matters. I can tell you having served as the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee over the years, that Hon. Duale is requesting for the development expenditure. My good friend Dr. Makali will bear me witness that what the Leader of the Majority Party emeritus is asking for is opening a ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, these are very weighty issues to do with how we manage and govern issues of public assets and parastatals. Therefore, I want to agree with you that the CS National Treasury must take the issues of Kenya Power and IPPs more seriously than he is doing. Also, the issues raised by Hon. Duale today are very weighty and the CS National Treasury cannot afford to take the House for granted. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just want to lend my voice to the changes that are being made to our departmental and select committees. I have listened to the reasons being given by both the whip and the Leader of the Minority Party. Whereas I agree with the Leader of the Minority Party that nobody from the Minority Party is being de-whipped view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: , the case is not the same on the Majority side. If you look at the people being moved around, you can tell that the real intent by the Majority Party is to de-whip Hon. Gathoni Wamuchomba from being the Vice-Chair of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing and that is why she is being moved from the Committee. Whereas it is within the rights of any parliamentary party to move Members, being a Member of the Members Welfare Committee, we have a role in ensuring that we protect parliamentary democracy. We must stand out as much ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Security, we must ensure that our committees reflect regional balance and that there is representation across the country. If I am not wrong, the Vice-Chair of that Committee is the Member for Mwea, who is just walking in. Maybe he is just a Member of the Committee. The Vice-Chair was changed to Hon. Gedi. However, if you look at the representation from Kirinyaga County, for instance, considering that the Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government comes from Kirinyaga County, we must ask whether if we flood this Committee with Members from Kirinyaga County, we ... view

• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: That one is allowed. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. While I may not have the time to respond to some of these other issues, it is good to advise the Member for Mwea that I have tremendous respect for all Members of Parliament including first-timers. However, that respect must be two-way. When Members is on their feet, you do not shout at them. You should behave in a mature manner like the Vice-Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security who has advised that the Member for Mwea was, indeed, moved from that Committee to another one. The question I am raising is ... view
