• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, on the particular clause that we are talking about, we had many amendments, but I have not seen them on the Order Paper. On Clause 6, we had very key amendments that touch on what we are talking about now. The key amendments were there. The amendment that was clearing all the doubts in that clause was the amendment that we proposed in deliberations that were about deleting Clause 6(1)(d). This amendment would handle everything else that we are talking about now. I would seek your guidance because I have not seen it on the Order ... view
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to move:- 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
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: THAT the Bill be amended by inserting the words “subject to re-committal of Clause 6.” view
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, we are talking about all property or any property but this Bill talks about a very specific type of property. That is why we are calling it matrimonial property. That is property that would be owned within the family framework or property that could be owned by the man and the woman who would form a union that we call a family. view
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: That is why the definition of “matrimonial property” will determine whether this Bill passes or not. If you look at Clause 6(d), you will find that we have tried to define this property by saying matrimonial home(s), household goods and any other property moveable. But we are also saying “any other property acquired during the marriage”. This means that we do not even need to have a definition. We should just say that as soon as you get married, you acquire matrimonial property and you do not define it. That is why I am requesting that this Clause be re-committed ... view

• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I request hon. Gichigi to second me. view
• 29 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, Sir. I also wish to support this report. I would like to tell my colleague that this report sets the standards and the pace for this House. It is on record how businessmen who do not want to do business in the right way deal with this House. There is always this feeling out there that Parliament is a conveyer belt and nothing serious happens here. The way this report goes will determine how this House operates for the next four years in this kind of situation. view
• 29 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I see very serious economic crimes against Kenyans in this report. On this I do not want to think about Jacob Juma or M/S Erad. What was the Permanent Secretary in charge of Special Programmes at that time doing? What was the Managing Director of the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) doing? We must not start by blaming outsiders. We must start with who advertised this tender? Who ensured that the way the tender was advertised was followed? Let us not think about those who sit out there or the brokers looking for business. However, let us look at ... view
• 29 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, this country has created many millionaires and billionaires who do not work or who do not know what hard work means. They sit down somewhere, come up with ideas, they say they know this Permanent Secretary and this Minister, they can introduce you to this Director and they can take you to the President and you will get what you want. That is why our youth do not work hard. This is because they know that in Kenya you just need to know someone. You do not have to work hard or start a company and make ... view
