• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I do not agree with the Chair. I oppose this amendment. This has been an issue before. I wish instead of it being “in consultation with”, it should instead have been “in consultation and concurrence”. Consultation can just mean informing and not necessarily agreeing. The word “consultation” is misleading. Unless the Chairman amends it to read “consultation and concurrence”, leaving it in those terms does not mean the same.

• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: You move on. If there is no concurrence, you can move on at the expense of the county government. view

It is one of the constitutional time- frame Bills and, more importantly, there is a section that stipulates that there will be consultations with the county governments. To me, that is very critical. At least, we are assured of aspects of concurrence. Traditions are very critical. They are the foundations of values in every society and when we talk of traditions, we are talking about the “dos and don’ts” which have helped us to co-exist in a peaceful ... view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is, indeed, embarrassing for this country that we are still discussing the issue of Migingo Island. This issue has been there for so long. What happened during the voter registration exercise is unacceptable. It is within the constitutional rights of the people of Migingo to register as voters. That right is outlined in Article 38 of the Constitution. The incident that happened is bad. Kenya is a sovereign State. I do not see why the Government of Kenya has been very magnanimous to the Government of Uganda. I know that Uganda is our leading trading ... view
• 15 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: As we move on, Hon. Midiwo and many Members who are here, it is important for us to form an ad hoc committee if these people are not getting committed, especially Members who come from that region. The ad hoc committee should be in place to investigate and inquire into and come up with recommendations that will safeguard the interests of the people of Migingo. view
