• 4 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Before, my friend, Mr. Kimaiyo left - and I want Mr. Boinnet to listen to this wherever he is - we had started a police station in Kiminini because there was a lot of insecurity. Such projects should not stop. He should ensure that whatever Mr. Kimaiyo had started is completed. I am calling upon him, because we used money from the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF)---We have built everything, but now we are just waiting for a Land Cruiser and more police officers to be deployed there. If he gets this job, he needs to analyse what is in the ... view
• 4 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not want to say too much and I do not want to read so much in this. I am calling upon everybody to see the sense in this. We should support this Motion. The issues we had about him on education have been resolved. So, I have no option but to support him and wish him God’s blessings. This is because leadership is from God. I support. view
• 3 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Report. In many jurisdictions, when you talk of privatisation, it is a principle whereby you give the management of public entities to the private sector for purposes of, maybe, improving efficiency and returns on investments. As we try to privatise those firms, you realize that their geographical distribution is in Western and Nyanza regions. The people of Nyanza and Western rely on sugar for their livelihoods. This privatisation should be able to add value and improve the livelihoods of those people. It should not work to the disadvantage of those people. ... view
• 3 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: it should write-off the entire debts. It should also go further and apportion the Kshs33 billion so that we are able to know how much is allocated to Miwani Sugar Company, Muhoroni Sugar Company, Nzoia Sugar Company, South Nyanza Sugar Company and Chemelil Sugar Company. When you leave this amount without giving the divisions, it is going to bring confusion and a lot of politics. So, it is important to go further and distribute the Kshs33 billion. It would be nice if the Government could write off the entire Kshs59 billion so that as we bring in the investor the ... view
• 3 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Again, the safeguards are now gone. They have also suspended the key stakeholders. We should have ample time to involve all the key stakeholders. Here, we are saying that the county governments, farmers’ associations and the Members from that region should be involved. We are calling upon the Kenya Sugar Board, which is now a directorate, to also get involved so that we can ensure that we improve the welfare of the people of Nzoia, Muhoroni and Chemelil. Their livelihoods rely on the sugar sector. I support. view
• 25 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support this Motion from the outset. I first and foremost want to congratulate hon. Patrick Wangamati for work well done.At his advanced age, hon. Wangamati must have worked hard in terms of research in order to bring this Motion. I want to thank him for work well done. The freedom that we enjoy today is because blood was shed and many people suffered. Unfortunately, a majority of these people have died and their children are suffering from misery, disease and ignorance yet their parents contributed so much to what we are today. It ... view
• 25 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: , I remember we used to be told that Mau Mau meas Mzungu Aende UlayaMwafrika Apate Uhuru . The Uhuru we are enjoying is what we were talking about. As my other colleagues have mentioned, sometime back during President Kibaki’s Government, we had somebody who came from Ethiopia and we thought he was the famous General Mathenge, only to be told he was somebody we did not even know. He was called Ato Lemma. This tells you that the Government must put mechanisms in place for identifying the real heroes. In Kenya, we know very well that we have so ... view
• 25 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: high, he stabilizes them. I also want to thank you for allowing him, because of his age, to go slowly when moving this Motion. I am requesting hon. Members to support this Motion, so that it can be passed, and the real heroes who fought for this country get compensated and recognized. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support. view
• 25 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I know hon. Amina is saying that because when we talked of the CDF, as a nominated Member, she did not stand up in solidarity. I want to support the Report of the Committee. It is, indeed, disappointing to see that the Committee never gave any recommendations as far as Mr. Karowo is concerned. This is somebody who is alleged to have given a bribe, maligned Madam Lichuma’s name and there are no measures for him to be prosecuted. It is unfortunate if we are going to act on any Petitions that come to the Floor ... view
• 25 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank hon. (Eng.) Gumbo for bringing this. First, I want to tell Kenyans that CDF is not going anywhere; rather we are going to do constitutional amendments, even if it through a referendum. I know we have two referendum proposals, namely OkoaKenya and Pesa Mashinani . We are going to have Okoa CDF Mashinani referendum; this one is going to be managed by both sides of the House. We are going to form a committee immediately to drive this point home. view
