• 11 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the intervention. We should bring up our children without tribal affiliations. If we bring up our children in that manner, we will have a cohesive nation that has the same language, ideas and modules that will lead to its prosperity. I support the Bill, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Speaker. Thank you. I support the Petition from my colleague. Land issues are becoming very emotive in this country today. I brought a similar Petition in this House which is yet to be finalised where a section of land in my constituency has been hived off and taken back to the Meru National Park yet people have been living there for many years. However, somebody in the lands office purports that the land belongs to the Meru National Park. Similarly, as my colleague has said, some people have been evicted because somebody wants to acquire that land to ... view

• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. I rise to support the Bill on the Kenyatta Mausoleum where the founding father of this country was laid. Let me thank Hon. Muthomi Njuki for coming up with this Bill. In any community, people have their own heritage and history. The late Mzee Jomo Kenyatta is part of the history of this country. We all know his legacy. Opening the Mausoleum where he was laid to the public will go a step further to conserve the same heritage. view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: When Mzee Jomo Kenyatta passed on in 1978, he was laid to rest within the compound of Parliament Buildings. No one knows what is inside that tomb. You cannot even tell if the body is there or not. It should have been taken a notch higher to include some information that would enable people to know our history. Students visit Parliament quite often. You have just recognised a school from Chuka. They should also get an opportunity to visit that heritage sight so that they can know about the history of our country. We should have artefacts belonging to the ... view

• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. First and foremost, let me thank the Mover of the Motion for coming up with this idea of having chaplains in our schools. As I support this Motion, we should reflect back and see the evils being brought to bear in our children when they are in school, especially this time when we have a lot of radicalization and some few elements infiltrating our schools and spoiling our children. Our children in school, especially secondary schools, are in their adolescent ages when there are ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: There are denominations or churches like the protestant church - to which I belong - which have what we call circuits. They have a pastor or priest in every circuit who traverses several schools by offering prayers when they are in assembly in the morning or in the evening. He or she visits the Christian Unions (CU) and the like. Those may not give enough of what is required of them because if one is left to man four, five or six schools, it does not give the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: required impact. If each and every school has somebody already trained in counselling and who can mentor those children very well, I think it will minimise that problem. I would even propose that instead of getting a chaplain to be in school just for counselling or a bit of work only, they could also be teachers. They may be Christian Religious Education (CRE) teachers or any other teacher of any other subject, but already endowed with the knowledge of trying to counsel those young people so that we can mould them to be future leaders. If we leave them, maybe, ... view
• 1 Sep 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a good day in this House. We have passed very important Bills. It has also made some of us realize that this country has owners. If they say: ―Let this be done, it is done‖, whatever it is. It has also made them realize that if these things are said with finality, there are people who set the agenda and once they do it, everybody will follow. So, as we go for this recess, this is a good opportunity for us to go and interact with our people, after this good work, and I ... view
