• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: traditions and cultures. We all belong to different cultures. I wish Hon. Kang’ata knew that, sometimes, our strength is derived from our different diversities in cultures and traditions. So, it is how we are going to implement this law if it is passed. It is not just being aligned to the Constitution, but the way it is implemented and translated to the lives of the people daily is what matters. Thank you, Hon Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to express my support once again. view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. This is a very important Bill, which seeks to introduce various amendments to the NLC Act, the Land Registration Act and the Land Act. These Acts were established to ensure the implementation of Articles 67 and 68 of the Constitution. The Bill also intends to remove ambiguities and confusion that has been caused between Government offices and departments like the NLC on one hand and the Ministry of Land, Housing and Urban Development on the other. The public has been a victim. ... view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: available land that should be given to citizens who do not own any land. Above all, the issue of those who have too much land must be addressed.

There has been an issue of group ranches in Kajiado and ... view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the chance to contribute. This is very important. Ugandans and Kenyans are brothers and sisters, but what is happening is very unfortunate. As the people in the region, we have been striving to deepen and widen our relationship to enhance trade between us. We even want to remove borders, so that we can move freely in the region. We want to be real brothers and sisters, but what is happening in Migingo Island is a shame. As Members of the National Assembly, we cannot sit and watch. I read ... view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: process of integration when we have a brother who is fighting and killing your people every day? Is it going to be acceptable? This is not accepted. Something has to be done urgently. I am calling on the Government of Kenya, which has very able forces, to do something. Otherwise, this is a very worrying situation. With those few remarks, I thank you and call for action. view
• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me the chance to speak on this very important Bill that touches on the people’s livelihood. I have had a look at this Bill.

• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: access Government services. This Bill is going to deal with some of these problems. But I am still very uncomfortable unless its implementation is made very clear. It is the responsibility of the Government to ensure that all Kenyans access services, are accorded equal opportunity and treated the same. Access to Government services should not be on the basis of whether you have money or not. This Bill also provides for clear formulation of policies and planning to ensure that Kenyans are served. It does not only put in place clear policy formulation mechanism, but it also puts in place ... view
