• 17 May 2017 in National Assembly: Many Members have talked about so many things that must be done. I have noted them down. I am going to ensure that when we go to the Committee of the Whole House, amendments are also taken on board. We must distinguish between the statutory measures and other measures like anti-counterfeit because the goods we are targeting are not counterfeit. They are goods that are treated normally and are of good quality. We are just trying to see that trade goes on normally and does not affect our internal traders. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for allowing us to ... view

• 30 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issue at hand is very important. It is an issue arising from the Constitution. Sometimes I wonder why we want to bring in the names of our judges. The judge who made the decision in this matter was merely carrying out his duties. We need to leave the judges out of this matter and handle it, as Parliament. So, we need to leave the judges out of this matter because the ball is now in our court. I am looking forward to Parliament being dissolved in the next 60 days, so that we can do ... view
• 29 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you so much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The matter we are dealing with is very serious. It is not a matter that touches on Catholics or Muslims or Anglicans only. It touches on the way we run our finances in this country. It does not matter whether you have Kshs1 or Kshs2 in your account. Hon. Duale knows that the CBK Governor, Mr. Njoroge, has not stolen anything. Hon. Duale has been mentioned in so many things that involve Government money and corruption and he cannot come here today--- view

• 28 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I want to thank the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee for, at least, this time around, bringing this ritual earlier. It is a ritual because, as Hon. Manje has said, nothing earth- shaking or ground-breaking is here. It is as usual. Pay salaries, allowances, stipends, do not produce and consume. That is what we have here. We are a country of consumers and we aspire to industrialise. We aspire to be a first nation in 20 years. It is not possible. We have been here for the last four ... view
• 28 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Budget we give to them in a fair, objective and non-discriminatory manner. Money is approved here, but you find projects being taken to some areas and not others. That is the role of Parliament. I thought that before we pass this Budget, the Budget and Appropriations Committee would report to us that, last year, we approved this Budget, this is what was done, this is how the money was distributed not just across the Ministries, but across the regions of the country. This is lacking. I hope the Committee on Implementation can in the future do this before we go ... view
