• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want this House to appreciate one fact; this Bill is not for the male and female legislators. It is for us all and it is for the 42 million Kenyans. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Yes and I am repeating it. I wanted to appreciate that because yesterday when we were debating, there are those who were making it look like a tug of war between the male Members of Parliament and the female Members of Parliament. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this Bill is there to protect the voiceless. This Bill is there to protect those who suffer in silence and this law is there to reprimand those who break the law. I believe if we are serious citizens and good Christians in this House and country we will support this Bill. I was about to say that I do not want to support it but after looking at the amendments by the Committee, I appreciate that the Committee sat down and realised that there were some issues which needed to be amended. I believe when it comes to ... view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Again, it has to be appreciated that we should not tailor this Bill so that we make artificial families. People live because the law is there. Let us first of all appreciate the sanctity of life. Let us appreciate the sanctity of marriage and let people enjoy marriage and also family life not because there is a law which they fear but they love to live together and bring up their children. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, if spouses can live together and they appreciate that they are married for good or worse, we shall bring up good children who fear God and who are useful members of this society. We do not want to bring up children who will be afraid to look at people because of the way they were brought up. If a girl is brought up in a family where the father is roaring every evening, she might be afraid to get married because she does not know what will happen in the house when she meets the man who will ... view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, in Section 6 we are giving the police too much leeway. I am sorry I am not accusing the police but they are known to be doing things the wrong way all the time. So, we might give them so much power and they end up harassing innocent people. This section should be put among the sections that need to be amended. If your spouse, former spouse or anybody else feels that they are aggrieved and they collude with policemen, you might find yourself in hot soup for nothing. So, that one should be looked into. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, finally because I would like to finish, there is a section that says that if you are found guilty or you have been accused of having meted any form of violence on your spouse, you are taken to a court of law. I find it ambiguous because how do you get fined and then pay your wife or husband compensation and then you end up in the same house again? You are already at war. Let people reconcile. Let people be The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this ... view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: counselled. That is the way to build the family. If we create a sense of reconciliation, it will be very important and helpful to the community and also the family. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I strongly support this and the amendments to come. Thank you. view
• 21 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion regarding the Report of the Departmental Committee on Regional Integration. I happen to be a Member of the Committee and I strongly support this Report, having gone through all the reports and analyzed them. The East African Community (EAC) is picking the pieces from the defunct Community which collapsed in 1977. We, Kenyans, as a senior partner in this integration, should be at the forefront in supporting this Report. We should be a live to the fact that we need this integration, so that our ... view
