• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just want to confirm that we held a Kamukunji as Hon. Members where we came up with very clear resolutions. We all agreed with the resolutions so, I want to assure Hon. Members that they will be implemented as agreed and there are no short-cuts to this. We are aware of that matter as the Budget and Appropriations Committee. So, I want to assure you as a Member of that Committee that we will implement your resolutions as passed during the Kamukunji . view

• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. I support the amendment but I want to make the following observations. Technical and Vocational Education and Training Institutes (TVETs) are very important in this country. We need to see fair distribution in terms of regional balance. We need to make sure that constituencies get these TVETs in a fair manner. So far, it looks like there is a biased way of distributing them and yet this is public money. There should be fairness. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairman, I said that I support the amendment, and made some observations. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Even as I support this budget for the Ministry of Health, I want to make the following observations. Through our interaction with the Committee, a number of issues cropped up. I think that is why you saw the Chair and a Member of the Committee were trying to move some amendments. This is one of the sectors where I would really encourage the Departmental Committee on Health to do proper oversight. It looks like this Ministry has a lot of resources which are just being used left, right and centre. I think it is ... view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I want to support that amendment. It is important to note that, for almost the last three years, we have been giving money for construction of those county headquarters and there has been very slow pace in implementation. It is high time this Ministry facilitates completion of those construction works. Unless we complete them, prices will be increasing as years pass by. As we support this amendment, proper monitoring of implementation should be done. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am not very sure that money for land compensation is under this Vote. As the representatives of the people, people are crying out there over land compensation. This week, we have seen serious demolitions of houses which have been constructed by Kenyans, and yet they have not been compensated. If the money is here, it is high time we demanded that Kenyans be compensated before their houses are demolished. It is very painful to see the houses coming down. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I also support this amendment, but as I do so, I think we have not exploited the potential in terms of film development in this country. This department needs to take up that challenge so that we have more of our young people being employed in the sector. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I totally want to agree with you and the Member for Saku. I do not think we will be demanding too much as Members. Even if not all chairpersons sit here, at least, when we are discussing a Vote, the chairperson of the committee that oversees that Vote should be present so that he can pick the issues we are raising and move with them in terms of monitoring of the budget and noting the concerns of Members. They can go to the HANSARD and read, but you do not get the feeling of the Member ... view
