• 25 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to comment on the Petition from the Member for Bomet. Before I say that, I would like to say that I am very perturbed by my former party, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), for expelling me from the Committees. I am telling ODM that they are lucky they got an MP from Meru on ODM. I got the votes not because of the party but because of my own integrity and my popularity among the people of Igembe Central. I challenge you to meet me there again. I will beat you ... view
• 25 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Having said that, I want to comment on the gazettement of Bomet County as a hardship area. We have a similar Petition on Igembe Central and Tigania West constituencies. There are areas in this country which experience a lot of problems as far as distribution of teachers and payment of teachers who teach in marginalised areas are concerned. I propose that instead of looking at Bomet or Meru North only, let the whole nation be holistically looked at so that we can normalise these areas and get proper distribution of resources, teachers and other civil servants. view
• 25 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I thank you for giving me this opportunity. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 19 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I lost my tongue when I realized that my Vice-Chairman has forgotten my name and yet, I am ever with him in the Committee meetings. I second this Motion on the appointment of those Kenyans to the Board of Directors of CBK. At the outset, let me say that those five Kenyans are qualified. Each of them meets the needed qualifications. When they presented themselves to the Committee, they exhibited the leadership which is needed of them. We found that they are equal to the task. All the five nominees have got wealth of experience, ... view
• 19 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: banks have been trying to dilly-dally on the issue of interest rates. However, the CBK should put its feet down so that, at the end of the day, the process of capping interest rates is undertaken. Finally, I would like to talk about liquidity ratios. The CBK should periodically assess all the banks. That is so that if there is any bank that experiences financial problems, it is then detected early enough. That way, it will be easy to bail out that bank and save it. That is because once a bank collapses, it collapses with all its members and ... view
• 19 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Despite the long wait, I will now contribute to this Motion. Let me thank my colleague, Hon. Mwinyi for bringing it. This document called “P3 Form” is one which is treated as sacred in the police circles to intimidate, solicit funds and to interfere with justice. We need to put these laws in order. I believe that the victims who require this document initially are traumatised, in pain or unconscious in hospital. Therefore, anybody might take advantage of that situation and make sure that the person seeking it does not get it. The law ... view
• 19 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: The law should be clear that these documents are free. They should not be sold or used to solicit bribes. We need more officers in these categories especially in police stations. We need about three officers who will be at the station permanently depending on its size. If one is in the law courts, another at the scene of crime or gone to hospital, there should be somebody else in that desk ready to assist other people who seek these services. Equally, in both private and public hospitals, we need to have several doctors designated to fill the forms. Filling ... view
• 18 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to give my contributions to this Bill. I rise to support this Insurance (Amendment) Bill. The aspects which are being addressed by this amendment are very pertinent and important. Insurance companies in this country have been known for supporting the most critical sector of our economy as far as shouldering the risks of our operations or the risks of life are concerned. At the same time, it is the industry which faces a lot of challenges because of the way it is handled by people who are not professional and who ... view
• 18 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: there was providing for 90 days. I also feel that it was not really respected because some claims go for years and they do not end up being paid. I pray that the 30 days limit is adhered to and respected. Within that particular period, the law must be very firm so that one is compensated and he or she continues with life as before. The Bill is good and is welcome. I support. view
• 12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Petition from my brother from Manyatta. Land is very emotive and, sometimes, when the Government is trying to put structures in place to, at least, do development, people who have already settled on that land for a long time are affected. It is prudent before that decision is taken, whoever is being displaced should be given a chance or relocated first, before being pushed away and then you are told you will be compensated later. Those people are languishing as squatters whereas they have been evicted from their forefather’s land. So, ... view
