I know that the Youth Enterprise Development Fund is at Lonrho House, which is not a government structure but a private one. So, if you consider the rent being paid for this house alone, it will be a huge saving. If we are serious about bottom-up economics, then this is the time we should merge these Funds so that this money can reach Kenyans who are down there. But the challenges have been many and that is why we are saying, to ... view
• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for your consideration. This is a serious matter. I know that the Leader for the Majority Party and the Whip are also in our shoes. So, even as we discuss these Procedural Motions, which are important for our work, I would wish that the Leader of the Majority Party – working closely with the Chair of the Committee, who also happens to be the Leader of the Democratic Action Party (DAP-K) – would work fast and move to the National Treasury and negotiate for the release of more funds so that the contractors can proceed ... view
• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to take this time to thank Hon. Mose for this important request for a Statement or inquiry into this matter. Look at what is happening. The other day I was in my office, which is on the sixth floor of Continental House. I was trying to see what was happening outside along the road.

• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: We are aware that there were attempts to attack Parliament in the past. We need to take this matter very seriously. I urge the Chairpersons of those two Committees to convene as soon as possible, summon the relevant senior officers and see how this matter can be addressed. We could have the State of the Nation Address, again, this year. If it happens, we will have the President, Chief Justice, yourself and security chiefs in the House. You can see the kind of risk that we expose ourselves to. That is not a huge request. It is a reasonable one. ... view
• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I thank Hon. Mose once more for this request. view
• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I second. view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I oppose this amendment because this clause is discussing a member of a political party. If you decided to join a political party, it is important you adhere to its ideology, interest and policies. If you want to promote another party, just resign, go to that other party and seek fresh mandate. We are wasting time with unnecessary amendments. I oppose. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The issues I wanted to raise have been raised by the Leader of the Majority Party. As he says, we have part (a) and (b) of this amendment and I think it is important that we move both of them at the same time. Otherwise, if you change from the “Public Service Commission” to the “Advisory Board”, then do we still need to go ahead and change the “parliamentary approval” to the “National Assembly?” view
• 21 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Another most important issue is when we talk of the National Assembly, are we restricting the issues of crime and money laundering only to the national Government? Could there be elements of the county governments? Those are the only issues for me. view
