• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you know Hon. Metito is a good man. I cannot refuse to second his Motion. I second. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The offices to which we seek to approve persons today are very powerful offices. These are the offices that could value or devalue the currency. These are also offices that could determine the interest rates. They could in a word devalue our lives. These offices determine what happens in the country and if we are not careful and we do not scrutinise them very well, we could easily put our lives at risk. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: The offices of the Chairperson, the Governor and the Deputy Governor of the CBK require a team that is bold, proactive and competent enough to know what is happening in the country’s financial sector. They should use the available instruments, policy and legal frameworks available to ensure that the country is run in the right direction. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: The Central Bank in any economy is a very important institution. That is why I am happy that Mr. Jairus Nyaoga accepted to be Chairman of this important institution. Mr. Nyaoga, whom I know very well, is a very qualified person and he has a very strong sense of discipline. He is one of the best commercial lawyers, not just in Kenya, but in Africa. He is an independent- minded man and I know that those credentials are the ones that led him to be named to chair the Tribunal to look into the affairs of the Makueni County. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I hope that when he finally becomes the Chairman, he will use his vast experience to ensure that the monetary policy and the policies that guide this sector are done in a fair manner.

He is qualified, but if you read the social media and on Twitter, people are asking whether it is only one community or two in this country who can lead the ... view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: The CBK Governor is the highest you can get in the running of a financial sector of any country. I hope that Dr. Njoroge’s long absence in the country will not undermine his capacity to understand the local financial industry and to ensure that he does so in a manner that takes care of the interests of the country at large and that ensures that interest rates are capped to a level so that most Kenyans can be able to join the banking bracket. As you know, this is a sector The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ... view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: that is craving for leadership and we hope that these three persons are the right people in this framework. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: On Mrs. M’mbijiwe, I had one problem with her. She was a Vice-Chairperson of the Jitegemee Trust. Since she left, the Trust has not been doing well. I would have loved to hear from the Chairperson whether they inquired into the affairs of the Jitegemee Trust during the time of Mrs. M’mbijiwe. view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Increasingly, the role of Central Banks all over the world requires more managerial skills than technical. We have very many technical experts in that office. So, we require these three people who are coming in to ensure that they infuse managerial skill in this office so that it is run seamlessly to help Kenyans. I support the Motion. view
