• 9 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. As you consider them, also consider my time, which has been eaten into by Hon. Makali. As Hon. Otiende Amollo has put it, as we pay pending bills, let us ascertain which bills are payable. It would not take long for county governments, ministries, departments and agencies of the national Government to ascertain which ones are payable and which ones are not. If there are those that cannot be paid then, let them be listed. However, for the ones that can be paid, they should be cleared. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I ... view
• 9 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Ichung’wah. He has been the best Chairman ever in this particular House especially, when it comes to access to Government procurement opportunities for PWDs. However, there is a lot of balancing between party loyalty and your own decision. I think that is the background which Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah was giving his exit speech. We wish him all the best. However, he was a dedicated and an intellectual Chairman. With those very many remarks, I support. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. The answer from Hon. Paul Koinange is not satisfactory. There is the COVID-19 Emergency Fund on which this House did not give an itemised budget. The Nyumba Kumi elders, during this time of cessation of movement, are the ones that identify strangers that have travelled from areas where there is cessation of movement, probably from Nairobi to Narok or other areas. They come into contact with them. There is also Ksh200 million which has been set aside to cushion the poor, the vulnerable and people living with disability. We have used the Nyumba Kumi ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker, yes there are four commissioners from the majority side, three from the minority and two who are independent, and are appointed by this House. Even for an MP who is supposed to serve for five years, there is a process of recalling him or her. If you have been appointed by a group or somebody, then that person has the power to remove you from office; if you were hired, that person has the power to fire you as far as the due process of the law is followed. We cannot say that since ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Not second. He is the third most powerful person in the country. So, what I am simply saying is that if the National Super Alliance (NASA) Coalition followed the due process of the law in removing Hon. Aisha Jumwa, then your communication, Hon. Speaker, will be to that effect. The process of the law must be followed. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I thank Hon. Wambugu for bringing such an important Motion at this particular time when we are faced with a pandemic. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: The pandemic has not only crippled the economy of Kenya, but also the economy of the world. Our businesses are dying as our people suffer, more specifically persons with disabilities. I thank the President of the Republic of Kenya for setting aside Kshs200 million to cushion vulnerable persons with disabilities. Targeting is taking place and the majority will be receiving a stipend at the end of every month to cushion them from the pandemic. That is on top of the cash transfer to severely disabled persons. This Motion is very important because this disease is very contagious. As a House, ... view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, we really like your guidance and directive. I was seeking from the Chair, Departmental Committee on Communication, Information and Innovation, direction on the matter of some Hon. Members polarising this nation. Some Hon. Members are moving from one funeral as professional mourners to hotels eating mandazis, discussing matters that can only be canvassed inside this House. Impeachment of the Deputy President can only be done in this House. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: So, Hon. Speaker, you can give us direction if we can put that in the Order Paper of Tuesday next week or call for a Special Sitting during our prayer days of Friday or Sunday so that Allah and God will be with us as we fight uganga na uchawi . view
• 12 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Give us direction so that we do not polarise the nation. view
