• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Therefore, while I support this I would like to say that sanctions are very good, though we may have to look at the fines imposed and increase them. The fines imposed are not punitive enough. The fines have to be sufficient. Also, around the schools where there are highways, we should have proper regulation that speed bumps and proper sign posts be erected, so that a motorist who does not know that area sees a road sign written “30 km per hour speed limit”. Also, there should be bumps to make sure that children are The electronic version of the ... view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: safe. Where necessary, schools should have people to help children cross roads. It is better when every punitive measure is put in law. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Laws exist to secure children during transportation. For example, a lot of vehicles have signs showing that no children should sit in front. When children sit in front there is a problem when safety devices in a car malfunction due to an impact. Therefore, it is better for children to be properly secured in a car. If one is carrying a baby there should be a baby seat and a sign reading: “baby on board,” so that other motorists know that there is a child in that car. It is also against the law; it has not been properly enforced, ... view
• 3 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to support this Bill this morning. I also want to take the opportunity to thank hon. Kabando wa Kabando for coming up with such creative ideas on how we can revitalize our banking in this country and especially to take care of young people in the country. As you notice, things have really changed in the recent past and now we have many young people involved in social media among other modes of communication like the internet, Facebook and twitter. Things have really taken a revolution turn in the ... view
• 3 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: will also make advertisements, young people will invest in the Bills and they will be able to lend money to Kenya. This will reduce our international debt. As hon. Kabando wa Kabando said while he was moving this Bill, you have a lot of monies which can be collected locally. You have a lot of monies held in Mpesa . You have a lot of monies now which are not even sitting in the banks. We also have other smaller savings in many banks that we have in the country. These monies can be pooled to an investment by young ... view
• 3 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: We can now send school fees and pay for fuel through Mpesa . In fact, this reduces crime in the country because the money is safe. If a mobile phone is stolen, the money is still intact because it is in the records. We would encourage proper record keeping, so that everybody is aware. When we get to the Committee Stage, we should ensure that the Central Bank finds a way of partnering with Mpesa and the Mshwari, so that young people can do all their The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 3 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: transactions through the phone. They should make their investments at the Central Bank and be able to retrieve them using the same method. People do not have to travel, queue in the bank, get the money and probably lose it on the way. This will be a good way of doing it. Since other parts of the world have done this successfully, I believe Kenya will also do this successfully. I would like to thank hon. Kabando wa Kabando for this great idea. Great ideas are the ones which build a nation. I would also like, through this forum, to ... view

• 18 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I rise to support the appointment of Dr. Lydia Nzomo mainly because she has grown within the education system in this country. She has the necessary experience as she has been there for enough years and she has gone through the system as a teacher. So, she understands very well the challenges teachers go through and the issues relating to teachers remuneration. Also, if you look at her education--- view
• 18 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for your protection. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, she has a PhD from the Department of Education and Psychology. Her Masters Degree was also on Psychology from the United States International University popularly known as the USIU. That background of psychology and counselling is very important when one is the Chair of such an important body where you have to deal with matters from different levels. The knowledge in Psychology is always an advantage. view
