• 3 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker for giving this chance to also contribute to this very critical Motion. Indeed, we need to appropriate money to assist various Government functions to continue until the new financial year kicks in. As previous speakers have said, there is something at Treasury that needs to be checked with regard to the IFMIS issue. However, I want to concentrate on the money that we are appropriating to the security systems in this country. That is for both the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government. The total comes to about Kshs14.5billion. ... view
• 3 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you should note that we have had problems with auditing security expenditure in this country. In fact, in the latest Public Audit Act that we just passed, we tried to shield auditing of security expenditure. If we are going to invest massively in security and we do not audit it adequately, then that is a possible conduit for loss of finances.

• 3 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I will mainly concentrate on the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. We are appropriating about Kshs1.193billion to this Ministry to complete developments in 24 new university colleges and in primary and secondary schools. I do not know where the developments in the primary schools are because in the neck of the woods that I come from, there is neither infrastructural funding for primary Schools nor secondary Schools. I do not know which secondary and primary schools these are. The worst of it is the universities. In the last Budget, we appropriated money to the Ministry of Education, Science and ... view

• 27 May 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. As you do your ruling, perhaps, you also need to consider what the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee had said earlier on. He tended to imply that the Budget and Appropriations Committee’s hands are tied as to how much they can change various issues that, perhaps, might have been recommended by Committees. He said that they can only move with a very small percentage. We are a House of rules and procedures and when I go through all that, I get the impression that the Budget and Appropriations Committee has much more power than ... view

• 27 May 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. Today, I am very proud to be a Member of the 11th Parliament that from morning to now, you have actually guided this House right in front of our eyes and all Kenyans to form a consensus. view
• 27 May 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you have prudently guided this House until this afternoon at plenary. We have actually been able to build consensus under your guidance. I was privileged to be in the last Parliament - the Tenth Parliament - which was a post- conflict Parliament. That Parliament rose to the occasion to, by and large, implement the Agenda 4 Items. This Parliament is tasked with implementing the Constitution which was part of the Agenda 4 Items. This afternoon, I am very proud that I am a Member of this House, especially with the ruling which you have given, and that has ... view
