• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice to this very serious debate that is before the House this evening. view
• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I am happy that for the first time and in a long time, we are passing a list of appointees where the majority are women. So, we do not have to fight about the one-third gender rule. That is a good move and I hope this becomes the case going forward. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me first declare my interest by saying that I went to school with the said appointee, Ms. Mwende Mwinzi. She was my senior in school and a very able leader. I have known her for a very long time. She is a woman of ... view

• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, please, ask Hon. Kaluma to allow me to continue. We are very well guided by Hon. Millie, who is a learned colleague, and who is a lawyer of high standing. She is a barrister. I want to challenge the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations, Hon. Katoo ole Metito. His Committee has in the past passed certain people into offices of commissioners and ambassadors when they have dual citizenship. Go and do your homework. Go back to the Committee and do your homework and do not challenge me to say here who ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have said and I repeat that this is an oversight Committee. Go and check what you did wrong in the past. The reason we are challenging this decision of the Committee is because there are certain things that were done wrongly in the past. We want them to go and rectify. However, do not start asking me to name names. It is the Committee’s business to go and look at their work and bring it back here because it is true. We do not want to be intimidated. Let it go on record. We know ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this particular opportunity to voice my concerns on this very important matter. I want to pick from where Hon. Wamalwa has left. He has said that the nominees list does not represent the face of Kenya and the youths. I am a Member of the Jubilee Party which is the appointing authority and I am getting tired of reminding them that we should have representation of persons with disabilities. At the moment, we do not have a single ambassador, Cabinet Secretary or Chief Administrative Secretary (CAS) living with disability. ... view
• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Let me come to the matter of nominee No.7. Hon. Sabina Chege kept on referring to Esau in the Bible. If you went to Sunday school, Esau sold his birth right. He did not renounce it, but sold it. For this case, the law, Hon. Speaker’s ruling and the Report of the Committee are very clear. We will approve her, but let her renounce her USA citizenship. If she cannot do that, I have heard that she is a very good and intelligent lady. However, it does not mean that we only have one good intelligent lady from Mwingi. We ... view
