• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Sorry, Hon. Speaker. I meant to say that as the Departmental Committee on Energy, we had picked up the same issue. Now that this matter is before court, we needed your guidance. Should we proceed or terminate the investigations? We had already started the investigations, as a committee. If, for example, we find the same issue, we are supposed to recommend to the DCI and the EACC to pick it up – a matter they have already picked up for purposes of prosecution. We will be making a request to your office to give guidance. In future, what happens to ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving this opportunity to support this Motion which has been brought by our able Member from Kilifi. view
• 25 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: It is true that this is a very important crop that the Government needs to assist in giving out monies to increase its production. The Mover has just indicated that the potential of these cashew nuts is very huge. It will go a long way to address the Big Four Agenda, matters to do with employment and give an opportunity to the cashew nut farmers to make a living. It is true that cashew nuts are served to passengers in aeroplanes. Nutritionists have always recommended the consumption of cashew nuts and it is important for us to support the Motion. ... view

• 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Let me first of all agree with Hon. Wamalwa and with you that we will be calling some technical people from other ministries. I want to thank Hon. Wario for bringing the Petition. In the 11th Parliament, this issue was brought up by the then Member of Parliament. It went through the same committee and later it was referred to the Implementation Committee, where I was the Vice-Chair. We had opportunity to visit Tana River and the other places and I think as Hon. Duale has indicated, it does not only affect their region. We ... view

• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity and to also thank you for recognising the primary schools that are seated in the galleries of Parliament. We want them to confirm whether they are beneficiaries of the feeding programme. As I was looking at the Motion, I wanted to agree with Hon. Vincent Mogaka. At first, it was meant for Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs). But I want to point out the fact that he has forgotten a few other urban areas and he has just included Nairobi and Mombasa. I come from Nakuru County; a county ... view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: the cost went up, accountability was not even there and so, many people would be taking the milk back to their homes or even unpacking or selling in the villages. There was also lack of firewood to cook in those schools and there was a problem of salaries for the cooks. These are some of the issues that we need to check, as we ask the Implementation Committee to ensure that these are matters that are going to be resolved if this Motion goes through. It is also important for us, as Parliament, to consider the budgetary provisions that will ... view
