• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: countries but KQ has been doing that. It is like our athletes. They have been marketing us. So, we need to take KQ seriously and nationalise it. It is very important. We have, for a long time, been riding on the likes of KLM. It is high time we stood on our own as KQ. The KQ, as we have said, is Kenya and Kenya is proud of KQ. So, let us carry it. The KQ is our burden. It will sell us. I support the Report. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I do not know whether I should call it a point of order or a point of information. I realise you have deferred three Motions with reasons that the Chairs of the committees are absent. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I thought committees normally have Chairs and Vice-Chairs. In the absence of the Chair, there should be a Vice-Chair, so that our calendar can move smoothly. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am not sure if this falls under a point of order, but I want to protect the speaker who is also the Vice-Chair of the Departmental Committee on Health. We all have what we call mother tongue interference. Hon. Kaluma is out of order to insinuate that he cannot understand the speaker who was talking on the Floor and yet he equally suffers from the same mother tongue interference. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Motion by my brother Hon. Osoro on the development and implementation of a curriculum for training students and pupils on road safety. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I do not think it should only be for particular students. It should cover a wider area. We should even reach universities and even the public because road accidents cause mayhem and bring hell to families. Accidents also cause economic sabotage. For example, the Mover said that road accidents have cost the economy over Kshs300 billion. It is true. In fact, it may be more than that amount. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Motorcycles also cause mayhem on roads. In fact, they even cross pavements. I do know how the curriculum should be structured so that it includes motorcycles. You may be walking on a pavement only for a motorcycle to hit you when you are where you are supposed to be. So, no matter how we structure the curriculum, the motorcycle riders must also be educated so that they do not ride on pavements. We need to construct lanes for motorcycles just like we want to introduce the Rapid Transport System (RTS) in towns. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: We also have issues on transport policy. If RTS is introduced in cities in Kenya, particularly in Nairobi, it should also be incorporated in the road safety curriculum so that when it is implemented it becomes all inclusive. On motorcycles, we need to make wearing helmets for riders and passengers compulsory. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I support the Motion and request that we implement it. We have been talking about it. We have heard about improving the transport system and road safety, but we hardly implement. We only talk. We need to talk and implement. view
