• 29 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, over half of the population in this country is the youth and three quarters of the youth are unemployed. When you find the youth out there loitering without jobs, they claim that we as Members of Parliament do not assist them get jobs. When you try to explain that the system is the one that has bogged itself with so many other things and forgotten the youth, it becomes very difficult. Some of the entities which are supposed to be employing these people are closing down because of the poor economy. Others cannot expand and so ... view
• 29 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: The Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF) gives youth money to start their own enterprises. However, some youth apply for the money but they are not given. In my constituency, I have a big problem where the Ministry came in and recruited so many youth who had to cough Ksh1, 500 per youth to get a certificate that would enable them get that money. Unfortunately, once that was done they did not get the same money and now they blame the MP who is me or other leaders for not having got the money while it is the system which is ... view

• 29 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: The youth are getting the worst services; they are receiving everything in a hot cup. These youth do not even have identity cards (ID). They spend the whole day queuing at the registration centers and end up not getting ID cards. If there is a job coming up, they run up and down looking for an ID card so that they can get a job because they cannot be employed without it. Therefore, the focus in this country is that most youths are joining the disciplined forces like the National Police Service (NPS), Kenya Defence Forces (KDF), Prisons Service and ... view
• 29 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: In this country we have many youths who can do other things without seeking employment or white-collar jobs. We need to have electricity in our rural areas. If you go to the rural areas and especially my constituency, we only have 30 per cent electricity connection. Therefore, even if a young person wants to open a barber shop or salon to do hairdressing or a carwash, they cannot because there is no power. If you go to the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC) asking for a line from point A to B, it takes three to four years. ... view
• 22 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. It is a very important Bill. The current regulations ought to be further regulated to put more safety in the use of medicine. It is normally said that a healthy country is a wealthy country. When we regulate this sector, we will be able to receive medicine of good quality because at times the unregulated medicines that are sold in our country are substandard and of low quality. Therefore, if we pass this Bill, the medicines will be of good quality. When we market the medicines without regulations, ... view

• 22 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Also, on the advertisement of the medicine, Hon. Pukose has clearly elaborated that in order for anybody to advertise the medicine, the prescriptions must be authorised by regulation so that people do not advertise something that is not of good substance. The nutritional content of the medicine being sold will also be enriched. It is because there is a body that will be overseeing and regulating it so that, at least, the people consuming it cannot be harmed or affected by the medicine. There are risks people encounter when they use substandard medicine. People die because of using medicine which ... view

• 21 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Hon. Sankok, do not expect that because you have been mentioned, you have to respond immediately. You have to be patient. Hon. Speaker, let me add my voice to this matter and congratulate my colleague, Hon. Dennitah Ghati for being elected as the president of the Commonwealth disability office. The selection panel picked the right person. I have known Hon. Ghati since we joined this Parliament in 2013, when she was normal before she got involved in an accident. She was astute, a very good debater and a serious legislator for ... view
