  • 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am not sure if the Statement pointed it out, but I heard Hon. Kiarie talk about databases. What is clear is that we have databases under the name collective management organisations (CMOs). Those CMOs are for producers, performers and various artistes. It would be interesting to know what proportion of the money went to the registered artistes under those listed categories and whether the artistes are registered in those various organisations. I am not sure whether the Statement captured that. That would also be a very important aspect. Which formula or methodology did the Ministry ... view

  • 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you have almost stolen words from my mouth. As you can see, I am holding that list. I am shocked because the State Department of Culture was given Kshs18 million, the Permanent Presidential Music Commission Kshs32 million and the Kenya Film Commission Kshs8 million. You can imagine all this money was given to Government institutions. You cannot give with this hand and take with the other one. What does it mean? It did not go to the real artists. I thank Hon. K.J., being a member of the Redykyulass team, he understands what these people go through. There ... view
  • 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, protect me from Dr. Pukose who has become a prefect in this House. I do not need a prefect in this House. The footballer does not have arms. He has only one leg which he uses to play football. I will give you his name. Allow me to bring him here, so that he can play football using his leg. He will even draw your image using one leg because you are a popular figure in Kenya. That is an artist. They are now forced to perform in our streets. How can a person with disability perform in ... view
  • 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: The Kshs30 million should have been given to the National Council for Persons with Disability, so that artists living with disabilities can be given the money because they have a register. This money should also be channeled to anywhere else they register. Lastly, if you divide Kshs100 million by 290 constituencies, you realise that it is just peanuts. So, we request our President to allocate at least Kshs500 million towards that. It will still not be enough, but it will be something that we can pride ourselves in. It should be channeled through elected Members of Parliament. They know the ... view

  • 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: I thank Hon. K.J., being a member of the Redykyulass team, he understands what these people go through. There are artists with disabilities. There is a guy with one leg who plays football. He does not even have arms. We no longer have entertainment. We do not go to weddings and other social places. view
