• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: He is a good elder from Wajir. During this time of Ramadan, he is usually a very good man. view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing regarding the suspension of works by the contractor on the ABC Place-Rironi Road part of the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway. It is of great concern that the contractor constructing that section of the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway at ABC Place to Rironi area, and in particular, sections in Kikuyu Constituency, has suspended works since early March 2022. The contractor avers that they are owed billions of shillings by the Government of Kenya, which have ... view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: (iii) Could the Chairperson explain what measures the Ministry has put in place to ensure that the section of the road between Kinoo Chiefs Collector Road No.5 to Muthiga and Kariango areas is made motorable and passable, considering that the earthworks had already begun and were left uncompleted and that, during the expected rainy season which is expected to begin shortly, this road will become completely impassable thereby inconveniencing many residents of Kinoo, Muthiga, Laichumbe and Kariango areas all the way to Kanyariri in Kabete Constituency, and also sections of Kangemi at the bypass, the inter-sections of Kangemi and the ... view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: With that, Hon. Speaker, I thank you. view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support what Hon. David Ochieng’ has raised. It is indeed true that the Commissioners whom we elected, especially those who sit in the National Assembly, must act in the best interest of Members of the National Assembly. It is true that the office block that we have waited for two terms of Parliament is incomplete. Since I joined this House in 2013, that office block has been under construction. When I chaired the Budget and Appropriations Committee, the Commissioners appeared before us every year and promised that by August the following year, the ... view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: He has also touched on the issue of our staff. You have three very good ladies in front of you who work as the Clerks-at-the-Table. I see Madam Sarah Kioko on this desk. By the time I joined Parliament, I know that she had worked in this House for 15 years. In other jurisdictions like in the United States of America (USA) and United Kingdom (UK), the staff from a certain level—Directors or Deputy Directors—cannot move from one House to the other. For instance, in the USA Congress, if you are a Director in the House of Representatives, you cannot ... view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Even in the UK, you cannot move from the House of Lords from a certain level to the House of Commons. The House of Lords has its way and mechanisms. This Parliament borrows heavily from those two jurisdictions. We have officers who have worked in the Senate and the National Assembly for the last 10 years. You cannot tell an officer like Madam Sarah Kioko who has the experience of over 25 years in the National Assembly that she stands no opportunity to ever rise to become the Clerk of the National Assembly, because someone will move from the Senate ... view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: the Clerk to even chiefs, District officers (Dos) and District Commissioners (DCs) out there. We can as well get an established administrator to come and become the Clerk of the National Assembly. Therefore, there are issues that we must address. view
• 14 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: There is the issue of mileage which Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ raised the day before. It is a matter that we, as Members of Parliament who come from Nairobi City County and the environs, have tried to address for two terms and even before that. Because some of the Commissioners who have become so dynastic in the Commission benefit personally from the terms that they get under the mileage, they do not consider the Members of Parliament who elect them to go and represent them. What Hon. David Ochieng’ has said is shocking. It is indeed true that those of us ... view
