Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, having said that, I now want to give way for our good professor to inform us about his thoughts on this law. I support.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was giving my younger brother time to come to his conclusion, but he has raised a very important point. Under Standing Order No.105, you know that this House has raised the bar for accountability by impeaching the Deputy President. Can you substantiate who are these people at the office of the CoB who must be given money in order to approve requests? We want to really help Madam (Dr.) Margaret Nyakang’o to be in charge of this very important institution. Could you help us with their names?

Thank, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Without looking like I am repeating what my colleagues have said, you deserve to be congratulated for this industry. I will tell you why in the next five minutes. There lived a man in this country and today he is lying dead, Peter Castro Oloo Aringo. I am privileged to have been in Parliament with him and I know the difference he made in our lives when PSC saw the light of the day. I, therefore, would like to use this opportunity to send my condolences to this fallen hero, especially to the people of ...

always sit in my home and when I give a woman Kshs400 - if I was to do it in Nairobi, people would think that I am crazy. However, when I give this woman Kshs400 and she buys uniform for her daughter, the daughter will march on and top at the national examination at Malinya, Shikunga, Shibuye, Lukhuna, Shimuli primary schools and all the other Primary schools.

how our governors and MCAs are working. There has never been greater deceit in this country. There has never been an opportunity for greater connivance to steal like what is happening in some of our counties and Kakamega being one of them. In my county, we ran a project running into billions, the so-called 10-mile-per- ward project and millions of shillings were sunk in. However, when you go to Kakamega, there is no single 10-kilometre-road project that is complete in any ward. Our MCAs, especially in Kakamega, have been reduced to cheering squads. You go to a public function where ...

I thank Sen. Ogola for that information. I thought it was happening only in Vihiga and Kakamega counties; it is even happening in Homa Bay. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am congratulating you and vowing on this Floor that for the sake of the devolution family and as a champion of devolution, that I am doing this so as to help Mama Imbosa, nominated MCA. When she told me they were doing so to earn Kshs3,000, I felt sorry for her and I knew they are truly suffering. I am doing this for my cousin; the elected MCA, Silas Muyeyia. ...
