• 11 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion on waiver of charges and establishment of an employment database. I support the Motion because here in Kenya we have so many youths who are qualified and unemployed. However, to access employment opportunities is also a nightmare. It is very difficult for the school leavers, graduates or those with whatever qualifications to meet the demands from the potential employers. When you talk of getting a job and then you find that for one to qualify, he/she needs to have five years’ experience. I wonder where ... view
• 11 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I support the Motion because we need a centralised database whereby a job seeker can get all the required documents at the same place. We are in the digital world and I expect the ministries concerned and the Public Service Commission (PSC) to have a database of all the people who have left school, who are qualified and need jobs. They can transmit this information to potential employers, be they private or public. They can resend the same information. Therefore, the job seeker will just place his or her application. The employer can then open the database and get all ... view
• 11 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: It is high time we established a database for all job seekers. The Government has to facilitate the process of disseminating this information to all the people who require it. Therefore, a job seeker will just present himself or herself in that particular place for an interview and that is all. We should not start asking for money from a job seeker even before they start earning it. At the end of the day, they will borrow that money or go to their leaders. You will find that somebody will despair and stop bothering about that job. I support the ... view
• 10 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I will follow suit with what my colleagues have said in support of the Bill. Once it is enacted, it will cure a lot of problems which have been bedeviling the National Irrigation Board. The Act which is governing the NIB today has been overtaken by events and was enacted a long time ago that it does not hold water anymore. That is why the NIB has never realised anything tangible which we can be proud of as a country. It is there in name, but the product of ... view
• 10 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: we pass this Bill, if the officers do not put their best feet forward and start implementing the same, it will be an effort in futility. We have streams and rivers in our local areas. During the dry spell, because there is no law anywhere and NIB is as good as dead, you find that everybody is siphoning water from the stream. People have bought pumps. Others are using gravity. You find that a river which flows for five or three kilometres does not go for even one kilometre because it dries on the way. Everybody is siphoning water to ... view
• 29 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. I support it.

• 29 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Let me thank my immediate two colleagues who have already put in a lot of expertise in this. Once it is enacted, I strongly believe it will go a long way in trying to bring cybercrime to its low levels, especially in this country and also make us use these devices and the new technology with ease. Technology is here with us. It is here to stay. It has much dynamism. Therefore, we should be prepared at all cost, knowing very well there are those who are out there taking advantage of these new technologies and innovations, to make a ... view
• 29 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: As I was listening to the Member who has just spoken, there are so many nitty-gritty’s that need to be done by the experts, so that we can close all the possible loopholes that might make this great Bill not to be effective enough. Once all the loopholes are closed and the Bill is watertight, it will be very effective that we might not come back to do further amendments. When we go to the Committee of the whole House and deal with the other nitty-gritty’s, the Bill will be a good one. view
• 29 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: People who have mastered that crime have infiltrated this Parliament, the very important persons (VIP) and many other people. They are using this new technology to con, coerce and even threaten people. Some people get sleepless nights having received weird messages or threats from those people. Others purport to be in danger and ask for assistance. They ask to be rescued whereas they are just waylaying somebody to go and attack or commit a crime. All these things put together need to be brought to an end. Even in politics, people are taking advantage of social media to threaten politicians ... view
