• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I know Dr. Muraguri very well. If there is something that the Jubilee Government has done, it is in this Ministry of Health. Dr. Muraguri does not only have the technical skills in terms of being a medical doctor, but when it comes to matters of financial management, he is tick. When it comes to customer service, he is tick. When it comes to project management skills, he is tick. He is a results oriented person. He is a transformative leader. We expect so much. He is so committed when it comes to matters of devolution. ... view
• 16 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second. As a Member of the Committee on Appointments, a lot has been said by the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party and I do not wish to repeat. This is to clarify that the vetting was done in line with the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act. As time goes by, we need to amend that Act so that it is a bit more comprehensive. When you look at the Act, there is the criterion that we use as far as vetting is concerned. There is academic qualifications, employment records, potential conflict of ... view
• 16 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: were critical issues that were beyond the Committee. On the two third gender rule, you realize that women are less. It is our humble request to the appointing authority that next time when it comes to the issue of gender as outlined in Article 27(8) of the Constitution, the aspect of gender should be taken into consideration. It is unfortunate that we are seeing two women exit and one woman being brought on board. We are seeing Ann Waiguru and Charity Ngilu exit and only Sicily Kariuki coming in. It is important that the law of the two-thirds gender must ... view
• 3 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am excited by the issue raised by Hon. Wangamati, who is the Chairman of the Luhyia Council of Elders. I want to thank The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 3 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: him for bringing this petition. Indeed, it is true that Webuye Town goes to sleep by 4.00 p.m. It is unfortunate. It is like life has come to an end for the people of Webuye. About 1,200 former employees have not been paid their dues up to now. I have no doubt that this has contributed heavily to the increased cases of insecurity in that town. It is, indeed, important that the relevant agencies move with speed, so that those former employees can be compensated. They are living in abject poverty. In the area, many children have dropped out of ... view
• 3 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second this Procedural Motion on Extension of the Period for Consideration of Nominees for various appointments. We know that this country is bleeding because of corruption. So, it is very important that we must move with speed on the report on the EACC so that we can have those commissioners in place. They can then vet the secretariat immediately. We passed a law here. They were given a time frame of 12 months. So, as the commissioners come, they must move with speed so that that secretariat at the EACC can also be ... view
• 3 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: looking forward to finish vetting with speed so that this House can be recalled back and adopt the report. It can either reject it or accept it objectively. As we move on, we have been told that there is no quorum. I know that when it comes to the Principal Secretaries, the vetting is done by the departmental committees. It is also my humble request that the Hon. Members of the departmental committees should avail themselves. They should give the requisite quorum so that we can adopt the reports and when we come back before we go for Christmas, we ... view

• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker--- view
• 2 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to second the Procedural Motion. It is, indeed, true that we have urgent matters that we need to transact. But as we move on, it is my humble request to the HBC, bearing in mind that today is a Private Members’ day--- These Members have worked tirelessly in terms of research. They have Motions and Bills which are lined up. If we continue interfering with the Private Member’s businesses, in the long run, they are going to get demotivated. We have seen people who submitted their Motions and Bills more than six ... view
