• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: I am standing on a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker, in terms of relevance to the subject matter. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill, which is important. It has come at the right time. The House is aware of the various boards that we have and that are mandated to market our various products, especially in the agricultural sector. We have the Coffee Board of Kenya, the Pyrethrum Board of Kenya, the Tea Board of Kenya and the Kenya Sugar Board. I do not even know why we have never thought of having a livestock and livestock by-products board to deal with livestock by-products. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: I am aware of a Presidential Directive that was given in 2012 to form this Board. I am not sure if we have not been having budgetary allocations to the same board that has not existed. If it is true that we have been having budgetary allocations to a board that has not existed for all those years, then we are in for a major scandal. This Bill has come at the right time. It aims to exploit the resources that are within the 80 per cent of the land mass of this country. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as you ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: bones and produce dog meals and even dairy meals from the same bones that we are throwing away. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we also have hides and skins. All Members in this House have shoes that are made from our livestock. They have belts and wallets. However, you will never see a wallet or a belt written “Made in Maasailand.” We import those very simple products that we can easily manufacture and make our people reliant. By doing so, we will also raise the importance of our livestock. For a long time, we have only concentrated on meat. When we ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: from the villages. We now have educated Members, engineers and everybody onboard and we cannot be able to manufacture simple things. When will this country manage to manufacture at least something that we would be proud of? This is so that even if you go abroad, you are able to find a wallet written “Made in Maasailand” and you will be proud of your own country. Lastly, on the issue of the composition of the board, and since this particular function of agriculture is devolved, I request Hon. Bashir that we look into ways of making sure that the board ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Is it in order for the Member to mislead the House? He is saying that the debt ceiling has not been specified. The debt ceiling is specified. It is numerical as opposed to a percentage. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for allowing me to speak to such a very important matter in this House. At the outset, I oppose this Report. For the first time, I am ashamed to be a Member of the Jubilee administration. There is no way we can have all these problems of drought in the North, South, East and West of our country and the same Government, which is supposed to protect that forest, is now purporting to petition this House to degazette part of the forest under the guise that Dorobos and Ogiek have always been ... view
