• 16 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. Of course, I agree, in line with the Mwongozo guidelines, but it was a ‘master’s degree’. So, you are leaving ‘degree’. I wish you had replaced with ‘bachelor’s degree’. When you say a degree, it must be specified. Hon. Limo, you did not give the justification for deleting paragraph (d). You only explained part (a). Why can you not give the justification for deleting paragraph (d), please? Thank you. view

• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. First and foremost, I want to thank the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations led by Hon. ole Metito. In the last Parliament, I was a ranking Member in that Committee and the performance was pathetic under the chairmanship of the Member of Parliament for Tetu, Hon. Githinji. I brought a Motion twice to impeach the Chairman because he was sleeping on the job. This is the first Report. Hon. ole Metito, because we were with him in the last Parliament in the same Committee, knew the problems ... view
• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Secondly, we must improve on the welfare of the staff working in those foreign missions. Research has shown that there is a positive correlation between how an employee relates to the customer and how he is treated by the employer.

• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: We have a lot of products in this country; tea is an example. Agriculture is the backbone of this country. We have tea and coffee.

• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: President of Turkey that time. Our President wanted to have more of our tea go that side but I remember what the President of Turkey said: “Let us not go where tea is.” It is because their tea is of inferior quality compared to Kenya’s. They have tried to put some safeguard measures in place for the sake of improving the welfare of the farmer in Turkey. This is the spirit. As I speak, farmers from Trans Nzoia, Bungoma and North Rift are really suffering because of the flooded market with maize from Uganda. As we try to advance and ... view
• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Okay, time is gone. I can see you are warning me. I wish you could add one minute. It is important that this Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations is given an opportunity to visit and evaluate many other foreign missions. There are other foreign missions in which we have embassies that are not adding value in trade. These embassies should be closed down because of overheads. They are not adding value.

• 3 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when this matter was being debated, there are critical issues that I need to reply to like the issue of a referendum. There is a perception that it is a referendum matter, but it is not. So, I have a lot of issues to respond to. I will give only Hon. Ahmed one minute for the sake of north-eastern then I will reply. view
