• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support this one because the Public Audit Act, 2003 was repealed. For this clause to be relevant in law it had to be amended. So I support. view
• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support the Committee and the Chair on this one. As the Chair has said Hon. Lentoimaga can pick on this one because it is somehow trying to mitigate his fears and what he wanted. This is because there will be some agreement which will guide the local community or the people who need to benefit from the forest, or the community bordering the forests who are the users. They will have limitations on how far they can interfere with that ecosystem. This will ensure that they do not get a free card to ... view
• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support. view
• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I wanted to oppose Clause 65 because it has been overtaken by events. I support the proposed amendments on Clause 66. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Let me take the opportunity to congratulate the Member for bringing this Bill. When the Bill was brought earlier, it did not see the light of the day. I pray that this House agrees with me and many others who have spoken in the same language. It is high time we changed the banking trends in this country. We should try to save our young entrepreneurs and other businessmen from the onslaught of commercial banks. We should also caution banks that it does not look very healthy when they make billions of shillings in profit as businesses that are purported ... view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: The Kenya Bankers’ Association comes up with tariffs and agrees to roll them out slowly. It becomes very difficult for one to move from one bank to another to get better service because bankers in this country operate like a cartel that chooses a certain path and sticks to it. It is time we, as legislators, tamed them and requested the CBK to become a real regulator of the banking sector and not just a regulator on paper. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: We are not only talking of interest rates, but there are other charges. When a customer goes to borrow money from a bank, an agreement is drawn in a language that very few people can understand. You cannot understand the agreement unless you have done some commerce. The layman just signs because at that point he is desperate for that money, but there are so many other underlying factors. I thank Hon. Jude, who has said that they should disclose all other charges which they might be charging in the course of servicing loans. At the end of the day, ... view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: how they come about. So, they need to disclose all the charges and put it in a language that is understandable to all borrowers. Our banks think that they are making money, but they are chasing away investors from this country. Many people are shy to borrow because they do not know how they are going to repay the loans. Some people have been paying loans for the last 20 years and they might never finish them because of high interest rates. At the end of the day, the principal amount remains stagnant until it becomes a court case. People’s ... view
• 10 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: The idea of cautioning banks is not to micromanage them, but they have to be tamed to attract investors into our country. Those who borrow to invest will get returns, so that small businesses and industries can grow. As banks grow, they should be growing with their customers and not their customers dying and they are left afloat. view
