• 4 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion on miraa . When I speak here, I do so with authority, having been brought up in a miraa growing zone. My constituency, Igembe Central, is one of the main producers of this product. We are debating issues affecting a crop which we strongly support. If anything is done that prevents the people of Nyambene or Meru from selling that crop, then we will be condemning the Amerus who have been living on it for centuries. The Meru community has known miraa for ages. Initially, ... view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, that young man was shot in my constituency. According to the report from the Chairman, I totally disagree with the information which he has given us. He is talking of patrols by the police and I am worried. He should clarify when they started doing it because when I visited that place, the OCS told me that they do not even have a vehicle to do patrols at night. We had a baraza with the Officer Commanding Police Division (OCPD) and he agreed that they should stop the boda view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: from operating after 7.00 p.m. but this has not been done. Could the Chairman go back to the Cabinet Secretary and confirm that what he has read is true because it is not? If need be, we can sit with him and I prove the same because they have no transport and the boda bodas are operating throughout the night, therefore, that is why this impunity, robberies and killings are going on. So, we cannot know who killed that man and why he was killed because nothing was stolen from him. I would request the Chairman to go back to ... view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me thank my colleague, hon. Wamalwa, for giving me these two minutes. I also congratulate him for bringing this Bill. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: I stand to support this Bill and emphasise that it will check those unscrupulous traders and business people who tend to go and import sub-standard materials and fertilisers. They bring them to this country and, at the end of the day, fertilizers not really benefitting the farmers. They benefit those people who import the same. At the same time, those fertilizers, at the end of the day, end up even destroying our soils and, therefore, reducing the food production in our farms. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, being an agricultural country, I strongly believe in the direction that this Bill is taking us. We shall be able to produce more for our country. We will also create jobs by having industries which will use raw materials and, at the same time, we will get time to evaluate and also do proper analysis of fertilizers which are conducive or good for different soils in different localities of our country. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: What happens is that the fertilizers that farmers know are DAP and these others. At the end of the day, when they come here, they are sold across the country without testing the soils to know exactly which soils fit with what kind of fertilizer. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. I thank hon. Wamunyinyi for bringing this Bill. I appreciate his determination to follow up this Bill, having brought it, as I have heard, in the Ninth Parliament. Personally, I feel that it is the right time to have this Bill passed in this august House for the protection of those people who do a noble job as psychotherapists, psychologists and counselors. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: These are our unsung heroes who do a lot for our society, especially when it comes to those people who have mental disorders, which are sometimes induced. Other mental disorders come as a result of ailment and congenital causes. Most of the time, we do not get the right people to get these people treated. Counselors and psychologists go an extra mile to even stay with patients in their houses, homes or rehabilitation centres.
