• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: good friend of mine, and I will probably consider him when we form the next government. I will not leave him outside. Hon. Speaker, I support and urge all the Members to support the proposed movement from one committee to another one. Let us support the de-whipping and the promotions so that we can move forward. Elections are just ten months from now and so, there is no problem. The Mzee of the House has reminded me that elections are in nine months. I did not want to sound like I want to leave Parliament. I also want to stay ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Mbadi’s proposed changes are good. There is nobody he has de-whipped and there is nobody he has promoted. He is very fair in what he does as the Leader of the Minority Party We respect him. I hope in the next Parliament, he will be promoted to a cabinet secretary. I will be the Leader of the Majority Party. Thank you very much, I support you. Hon. Speaker, thank you very much for being here for us. I know that every change comes through you. Even though you are very busy in your presidential campaign, you have always made ... view

• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, it says: “...provide evidence that the sugar they intend to import is not available in Kenya”. Does it mean there is a type of sugar that is not available? I do not know if there are several types of sugar. I think we should only say, “...provided that the sugar is not available in Kenya”. Otherwise, they may create artificial shortage of a certain category of sugar. In any case, sugar is sugar. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. One, what is the rationale of having the headquarters in Kisumu and yet, we have 47 counties? Does it mean that Kisumu is a designated headquarter of a certain region? Two, some of us from Transmara Sugar Factory will not accept to go all the way to Kisumu or be answerable to Kisumu. Lastly, we only have one capital city, that is, Nairobi. As far as we are still one country, our Capital City is Nairobi. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I think the further amendments from the Chair are not very necessary because (b) says if that person is convicted of a criminal offence and sentenced to imprisonment for a period exceeding six months without the option of a fine… We are putting “without” because if there was an option of a fine and then you pay it, he would be able to discharge his duties in the board. When there is a fine, they will pay the fine immediately and come out. If there is no option of a fine, it means they will not discharge their duties for ... view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I think there is confusion here from Hon. Kilonzo, Hon. Melly and my good friend from the other side. There is a difference between a board and a tribunal. A tribunal has a limited lifespan. It is only for a certain purpose. Once the purpose is solved, you do not need that tribunal any further. So, it is a board. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I accept the information from Hon. Wangwe. He is my Whip. view
• 13 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I accept to be corrected. It is me who has erred. So, the rest were very correct. Hon. Melly, Hon. Kilonzo and Hon. Makali Mulu were correct. view
