Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also call upon the Anti-Doping Agency to enhance its vigilance and eradicate rogue agents and coaches who are masquerading as athletes and spoiling the careers and good name of athletes. I call for punishing of the entire value chain of the criminal enterprise involved in doping our athletes - sportsmen and women from the doctors, chemists, coaches and trainers and not just the athletes. I also call upon the sportsmen and women to be used as Kenyan brand ambassadors going into the future to market our country as part of sports tourism. In conclusion, I wish ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this God- sent Bill before the House. This is long overdue; we should not waste a lot of time because Kenyans and young people, including the people of Nandi County, and I, have just interacted a few minutes ago. They are yearning for this wonderful programme. It is sad that the people who are crying the loudest are the ones who need these houses. We need to give dignity to Kenyans in slums and when the courts ruled that we must have legislation, it was important. I am happy this Bill ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do my research very well. I have the report of the Committee. It is the same Sen. Osotsi who misled this House that these reports were not signed. I have seen the signatures. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, you must vet some of these points of orders. I have in my phone a digital report. I can table it. Secondly, although Sen. Thang’wa has informed me, we are not in an ODM rally where you are used to heckling. Can you allow me to submit? I want to table evidence that this report has been signed. ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to comment on the Statement by Sen. Osotsi on the issue of eCitizen. While we agree that there are challenges with the usage of eCitizen digital platform, it was intended to ensure that we have a one-stop shop and that all payments are made through it. As you are aware, payments to NTSA, National Environment Authority (NEMA) and even school fees, among others, are done using that platform. The intention of having eCitizen digital platform was to ensure that we get rid of corruption and other handling of money. It is important that the ...

Yes Mr. Speaker, Sir. He can inform me. He has been my advocate before and I have benefitted.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I conclude, that was misplaced. He did not listen to me carefully. I said since he is an advocate and was the Chair of Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) some time back, his integrity precedes his name. I said that since he is an advocate, he has encountered challenges while filing in courts of law and the land registry, unless he is new to Jerusalem. If there is no corruption in Nyamira County, we thank God for it. Finally, we should call upon and encourage Kenyans to use the eCitizen for the benefit of all and ...
