• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to comment on this Report which I support. As we have always said in this august House, land is an emotive issue which needs to be looked at critically. Let me thank the Committee for coming up with this Report. It came out boldly to ask the Government to degazette that piece of land so that the people who have been occupying it can enjoy living there without any problems. In as much as we say we want to improve the forest cover in our country and also have public land ... view
• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: areas where we have to look at the interest of the people who occupy the land. We need to look at the interests of the citizens of this country, who need to be accommodated in our country’s land, so that they can live happily in their motherland. If one has been given a piece of land and has developed it… We heard Mheshimiwa Njomo say something. I would say that it is very immoral for the KFS, or the Government to say that they want to evict these people. They were not evicting them from forests rather it was from ... view
• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: It is about this one, Hon. Speaker. view
• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I rise to support the Motion and the Report from the Departmental Committee on Lands. The directives given by the President to Ministries are supposed to be implemented. It is unfortunate those directives are not implemented by the people who are supposed to implement them. There are many cases where the President has given directives to Ministries, but they fail to implement those directives. From the findings of the Committee, His Excellency the former President, Hon. Daniel arap Moi directed that the land be degazetted so that squatters are settled there. That was not done as the former President had ... view
• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: intend to have this land, then they should be held responsible and accountable for mishandling a public resource. It will be good for the Ministry to move with speed and degazette that land so that the squatters are resettled there. My constituency borders Meru National Park and there is a big land that is enclosed by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), at a place called Athiru Gaiti. Since the year 1998, people from that area keep asking the Government and the KWS to give them back their land, but that has not happened. When you have something of this sort ... view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to the Petition. In the 11th Parliament, we had a Motion which was dealing with the same issue. There have been several subsequent Motions focusing on the same. I, therefore, request that when the Committee sits, they seek all the Motions, look at the conclusions and put them together. The bottom line is that we need counsellors in our schools. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I seek your guidance. I want to make a follow up on Question No.116/2019 where I sought advice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on a young gentleman who was arrested in Mumbai, India on 28th May last year. That Question has not been answered up to now. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Yes. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I do not find this amendment necessary. If it is a matter of swearing in, it is for a short while and it happens once in a while. So, I do not see why we should spare the Chair that honour and exercise because it is quite important. It does not cost much and it cannot take much of his time. So, I request the Chair to withdraw that amendment and we proceed. view
• 27 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to support the Committee’s Report. According to their findings, all the five referral hospitals suffer similar problems. There is shortage of staff, they are underfunded by the Government and have old and obsolete equipment. view
