• 6 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do believe that Hon. Sankok is aware that 001 is relative. If he looks at the view
• 6 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: , he will see that Hon. (Prof.) Jacqueline Oduol is 001. He knows that. I would like to support this Bill and thank the Senate because it goes a long way to help us citizens and particularly those that we represent fulfil their dreams. If you look at the manner in which the Bill has identified, as was indicated by the Leader of the Majority Party, gaps that were hampering the effective functioning of the county governments, you will see that this is work that really lives to the spirit of enabling the Senate to realise its role, as provided ... view

• 6 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity. Allow me to, first of all, thank the Jubilee Government. This is the best gift that it gave to cushion our people. I wanted to suggest that if having one centre for older persons to receive the money is not feasible, we could add more centres in the constituencies. We could even use the tallying centres where people go to verify their voter registration statuses and cast their votes. Why can we not also use the tallying centres as payment centres for the older people? They can walk there ... view
• 18 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving this opportunity to support and thank our Chair because I belong to the Special Funds Accounts Committee. We went through a lot of discussion around this Report. I want to congratulate the Chair, the Member for South Imenti. This is a true reflection of the findings we had in the Committee. I am a product of NG-CDF. The bursary component of NG-CDF enabled me to go through my education as a young girl growing up in Kuria. I can, therefore, vouch for the continuity of NG-CDF. That was the time ... view
• 18 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: one of my recommendations, I would vouch for an increase in the percentage of bursary fund in NG-CDF to enable so many children in rural areas to access education. Many people have seen NG-CDF. It is working. This is the best fund that we have seen. We have grown seeing NG-CDF funds working. In all the 17 constituencies of Nairobi County that we evaluated, we realised the importance of NG-CDF in terms of schools, renovating infrastructure and education. Everyone who has grown up in this country has a history with NG- CDF, especially children in rural areas who would never ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Sports, Culture and Arts the following: (a) Provide the implementation status of the sports policy with regard to persons living with disability in the country. b) List the sporting activities for persons with disability in the country. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to support this Motion. When we look at what is happening in our society largely, the breakdown that we can see in the social fabric; the breakdown in the family where to a large extent parents are either overwhelmed because they are trying to make ends meet; and a number of cases where by the very nature of engagement, children tend to be growing up in a context that does not give them very clear direction, then we would see that it is important to strengthen mechanisms that can allow our ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: So, as I support this Motion, I would like to draw the attention of the House that it would, indeed, be a very wrong thing for us to expect that children, even if they commit a crime, would be put in police cells with adults. Therefore, we must strengthen mechanisms and ensure that we are able to keep those children as children as we ensure that we bring them back to the required standards. With those remarks, I support. view
• 16 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Chairman. I support the amendment. I remember during the First Reading, I felt that it is extremely representative. I think I had also expressed a desire to bring in an amendment at this stage to basically look at the issue of representation, especially looking at a representative of the community of persons with disabilities (PWDs) simply because with the advent of devolution, obviously we are talking about counties. Therefore, we realise that even with a composition like The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report ... view
