On issues of the COVID-19 pandemic, we know that the President’s leadership has been dogged with many challenges in health and finance because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The President has tried. I like the way he intervened during the COVID-19 crisis in 2020 when it began. We have seen so many measures that were taken by the Ministry of Health and that is why Kenya has not experienced many deaths in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to our neighbouring countries and other countries. That is a big plus for our President. We appreciate key things in the education sector. ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity and consideration given to me. I rise to support the Bill. Alone, I can do little, but together, we can do much more. This is my new saying which I will develop and base on as I support this Bill.

The CBOs play a key role especially in my constituency because they are very many. They help the community in terms of infrastructure, financial activities and everything. Let me begin by thanking the Committee for seeing it wise to come up with this Bill to legalise these groups, so that things can be done in a free, fair and transparent manner. We have faced a lot of challenges and issues in distributing the Uwezo Fund. Some members do not take majority of these groups seriously. If we will have a Bill recognising CBOs, things will work out smoothly.

If this Bill is passed immediately, we will empower our people economically. In a community group, you will invest and deal with the funds with proper protection. Also, they can raise or borrow money from anywhere even banks if legally recognised. I do not want to say much. This is a very good Bill and if it is implemented, it will help many CBOs. This is the way to eradicate poverty. I do not want to support the issue of bottom-up approach, but still, we can borrow a lot by implementing this approach and empowering our people. This will ease ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. In fact, I will adopt the name very soon and it will be legally recognised by everybody in the world. I am the original CNN. Thank you for giving me the opportunity. Allow me to inform you that I am a Member of the Committee on Implementation and I was lucky to accompany my colleagues during the investigation in Mwatate Constituency. I can authoritatively confirm that we visited the site and interacted with several stakeholders. One of the key issues we noted was that Taita Sisal Estate owns 30,000 acres of land in that ...

Other investors in this country can emulate this. There was good CSR. The way it had been planned, they had already provided accessibility by the community to the school and other surrounding homesteads. This report encouraged us on how things ought to be done in a free, fair and transparent manner. I am confirming that we investigated. In fact, I thought that because we did this in 2018, I personally thought that the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning should have implemented it a while ago. There were about 6,000 acres which Taita Estate gave freely to squatters around the ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity given to me. Let me appreciate the work of the Committee and without hesitation, congratulate the nominees to this Authority and particularly Ms. Lena Munuve who comes from my constituency, Mwingi West. I know her as a very competent person who has worked in the private sector many times and has exemplary performance in all the institutions she has worked with. This Authority must ensure there is enough protection for consumers so that their rights are not abused by unscrupulous traders and people who offer services and products. The other issue ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity. I support the ratification of the agreements between Kenya and South Africa, and Kenya and Botswana. I am lucky because I worked for an airline for eight good years during my career. Let me start by congratulating the Committee. If there is a Committee that has been overworking for the last five years, it is this Committee. We have seen the road network expanding in a free, fair and transparent manner. We have seen so many agreements coming to this this House for ratification. Let me congratulate the Chairperson for a ...
