• 26 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: We have two parallel administrations which manage education in the counties. We have TSC which performs supervisory functions in schools and the Ministry of Education. It is a duplication of roles and an expense to the Government. In case of discipline cases of teachers who head our schools, the Ministry of Education investigates and checks the quality of education and TSC does the same thing. view
• 26 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: I wish this House can re-look at how the administration of education can be streamlined so that we have one command or line of administration. That way, things will move smoothly. The confusion that we see even in Dagoretti is because we do not have one command station The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 26 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: where teachers can be supervised and matters followed up for purposes of ensuring that our children are secure in schools and that the administration of education is reasonable. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have really waited for this chance. First and foremost, I want to congratulate the Budget and Appropriations Committee for the time they put in coming up with a very good Report. I want to start by commenting on the allocation to the Ministry of Education and Infrastructure. The Ministry of Education is given money to put up infrastructure, to enhance universal education and to be able to provide enough classes for both primary and secondary schools. What we see when that money is distributed is this: About one million is sent per school ... view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Secondly, I want to comment on agriculture. We have seen the Ministry of Agriculture allocating money to pans and boreholes in communities, so that boreholes can be used to irrigate small holder farms and pans to do large-scale irrigation. But then looking at bigger irrigation schemes, we have seen that dams have been built, but they have been built in one area. We have not seen anything coming to Western and Nyanza region to promote food security in that area. We also feel that in the near future, we should have resources allocated so that we have dams in those ... view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: On sports, the introduction of sports funds is a welcome idea; hoping that it will sort out the problems that we are having of stadia. We have seen stadia being built selectively in some areas. We have not seen any stadia being built in Nyanza, western region and Trans-Nzoia.

• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: urge the Ministry in charge of sports to distribute those stadia equitably. Sadly, there is only one stadium for bull fighting in Africa and it is located in Malinya in Kakamega County. There is nothing which has been put there. I hope that the sports fund will pick up this and construct that stadium to attract tourism in that area. I want to laud the Ministry of Trade. You have seen them allocate about Kshs1.2 billion to support small industrial parks that had been built in constituencies. We hope that those monies will be distributed well so that they can ... view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Finally, I want to look at the issue of health. I am happy that the Budget and Appropriations Committee visited Kakamega County and had engagements with the Governor of Kakamega County. The County of Kakamega has built a Level 6 hospital which they have offered the national Government to take up, equip and run as a Level 6 hospital. It is important to note that the whole of western region does not have a referral hospital. If the national Government will take up that Level 6 hospital, this will be a welcome move to the people of the area since ... view
• 7 May 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I take this opportunity to add my voice to what hon. Members have just talked. I come from Ikolomani Constituency which I represent in this House. Barely a month and a half ago, we had six killings, five from constituency and one from Sabatia Constituency. We made an effort to see the CS who allowed Hon. Agoi to see him. He promised to be on the ground on 5th of last month, but he never turned up. If you look at the manner these killings are executed, especially on watchmen, you will see that they ... view
