• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I support Hon. Omboko Milemba who is actually a mwalimu. Bringing this Petition here is a move geared towards protecting teachers. I am sure this House will protect teachers because they are suffering. Nowadays, no one in in his or her wildest dreams would want to be a teacher. In fact, entering the teaching profession is just by default. If you ask any school-going child what they want to become, none of them will say they want to be teachers because of how teachers are mistreated in this country. Professional development of any profession ... view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask Question No.370/2021 directed to the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Planning: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide the status report regarding the payment of death gratuity due to the estate of the late Mr. Richard Chepkwony Koros, Personal Number 54171 who served as a teacher under Teachers Service Commission and whose next of kin is one Ms. Grace Chepkirui Koros and state when the dues will be paid? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain why the next of kin is yet to be paid the gratuity despite assurance from the Director of Pensions ... view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Chairman. We support this one because the moment we include national government entities and county government entities, it means that even the water service boards in our counties are also identified as employers so that we do not leave out any public servant. I support. view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Chairman. Are salaries of CEOs of parastatals determined by the board or SRC? We have to be careful on this. It should be all agencies that can be consulted. It is the board that determines the salaries of CEOs but in consultation. view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. We support this amendment because most of the “hustlers” will be contributing around Kshs150. So, when it is topped up to Kshs500, it means the employer will be contributing around Kshs350 while those at the bottom of the pyramid will be contributing Kshs150. That is why we agree with this particular amendment. view

• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Nominated, JP): Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. There will be no contradiction because you can voluntarily decide that instead of going for private insurance, you increase your NHIF contributions, so that it caters for you depending on how much you contribute. That is there, is it not? That is what it is. Although it is compulsory, even the youth can decide to top-up. For the record, I went to Kericho High School. These guys should not think that Alliance High School is the best school. Kericho High School is the best school in the country. view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, there are nine members, and that is according to Mwongozo . I am talking about the further amendment to include health professionals. The Board will have 10 members. That is not viable.

• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: member does not vote. Eight members are not acceptable. In case of a tie, they will not agree. So, a further amendment will be okay. Again, according to Mwongozo Code of Conduct, there must be nine to 11 members. If the further amendment will bring the number to nine, then we will support it. But if the number will be 10, it will be against the Mwongozo Code of Conduct. In case of a tie in the vote, they will not make any decision. I have been told by Hon. John Mbadi, the Chairman of ODM, that the number will ... view
• 22 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is not by coincidence that I am called “Nominee 001”. Even in coming to this House, you will affirm that I arrive here before you and leave after you because I have to earn from my sweat. view
