• 17 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: I am victim of a crime. I was attacked and shot by some people. One of them was caught and jailed, but nobody bothered to know what had happened to me. Today, I walk with a limp, not because I was born limping, but I was shot by somebody who wanted to kill me. The Government should have done something, at least, to compensate me. Even if that person was also shot and killed, I am still suffering. It was wrong that this was done to me. view
• 17 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: So, this Bill is timely. Its operation must even be backdated to cater for those people who have not been compensated, including me; the Government should look into this. We have got those people who are able to pay for insurance. view
• 17 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: I stand guided hon. Speaker. Some victims also lose bread winners and people are left suffering. Even today when we go to areas where we have had criminal activities like in the coast area of this country, we see that so many people have been killed. They were killing men who were bread winners in their families. Some families which now are going without food had bread winners. We are running after the criminals, we have killed some of them, we have gotten others to jails; they are be jailed, but nobody is looking back and asking what will happen ... view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I would like to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security regarding the posting of national Government officers to Igembe Central Constituency. Thank you. view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary DeputySpeaker for giving me this opportunity. At least, I am happy that I have got a chance to speak despite my brother, Simba, coming to disrupt the cool afternoon of this august House. I rise to support this Bill on Scrap Metal. It is high time that we went this direction. We need to tame trade in scrap metal because sometimes it is a nuisance. Once we have old metal and unwanted items, we need somebody to recycle or collect them. However, this has been done haphazardly in this country. It has even ended into vandalism ... view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: You might leave your stove outside and it is picked and sold as scrap metal. I even propose that there should be a regulation to confirm whether an item is worth being classified as scrap metal. They should pass some test so that you do not take a genuine item and classify it as scrap metal. view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is even vandalism of power transformers. We have had very many problems with power, especially in my constituency and Meru County as a whole. We have very many transformers where oil has been siphoned and residents and villagers are left without power. This is taking Kenya Power a very long period to repair the same at the detriment of the consumers of this power. This is affecting people who have fridges and watch World Cup matches. It is very hard for the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A ... view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Kenya Power to replace these gadgets when they are stolen. It also becomes very expensive. The Mover of this Bill, the Majority Leader said that there is a council in the Bill which has to be formed. I will bring an amendment on this because we do not need very many councils in this country. That is whatever we do we have a council or a commission. We can even have a department in the Ministry of Industrialization and Enterprise Development or any other relevant Ministry that can be allocated duties of ensuring that this Bill is implemented to the ... view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: The people who will get these licences should have premises and places where they will collect scrap metals and they should be inspected regularly to ascertain that they are not dens of thuggery and robbery where vehicles are stolen, dismantled and hidden there. We have seen these things happening. The places become dens of criminals and the people who are not very good to the society. view
• 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: I believe that we shall have a smooth business for our brothers with these regulations. This is especially those who are scared that this Bill is coming to push them out of business. I believe that the Bill will regulate their business and we are regulating everything in this world. We are going digital. We are going in the right direction and things are changing. Let us move from the old laws and embrace new laws so that we can move forward together. This is not a punitive measure to kill people’s businesses. Personally, I do not see it that ... view
