• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This afternoon we have taught people how to flog their dead horse. This particular clause is just about that. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the proposal was just a clean up to this Bill. Since the chorus is a no, I too withdraw. view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 13 of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (g)— (h) in subsection (6A) by inserting the words “and in at least two daily 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
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: newspapers having nationwide circulation” immediately after the words “in the Gazette”. My proposal was to allow this Bill with the original Act. You can say no until the cows come home. I am a pastoralist! In this particular suggestion, we have said that the registrar in deregistering a political party must cause it to appear in two national newspapers of national circulation. If you think that is useless, I do not know what laws you are making in this particular House. view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I beg to move. view
• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I do not wish to withdraw. I therefore beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 15.

• 5 Jan 2022 in National Assembly: In the Principal Bill, the Political Parties Fund is divided as follows: Total vote count gets 80 per cent, the number of candidates from special interests gets 15 per cent and 5 per cent for Fund administration. In the proposed Bill, 70 per cent goes to the number of total votes cast in the general elections, 15 per cent is to the special interest groups, 10 per cent to elected representatives and 5 per cent to Fund administration. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, we must look at the realm of developing parties, enhancing democracy and building on it. If we want ... view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The petition by residents of Laikipia is important. The issue of insecurity is not isolated to Laikipia. It is in Marakwet, Marsabit and Samburu. The question that we begin to ask ourselves—and this is endless—is: Is this thing deliberate? Is it planned? Why are we turning a blind eye to the killings, maiming and destruction of properties in that part of the country? Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if we continue this way, the next administration will be forced to endure so many litigations by citizens claiming compensations for failure by the Government ... view
• 1 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to congratulate the President for his Address to the nation yesterday, in line with Article 132 of the Constitution. At the outset, I want to recognise what I consider positive and effective things that have been achieved during his Presidency. In particular, let me mention the area of electrification and connectivity. As a legislator representing Saku Constituency, I can say that today we have many villages with electricity which hitherto were actually in the dark. The other area concerns international obligations. I really want to congratulate the President for the ... view
• 24 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support this very important Bill. As it is, KIRDI existed, but it did not exist at the same time because it lacked infrastructure, funding and output. We did not have it. It appeared to be an institution that was there. Its founders knew what it stood for but, in the end, there was no output. Through this Bill, we are likely to see an institution of this status become a formidable institution that contributes to the productivity and advancement of our country. Research and development is the frontier of discovery. It ... view
• 24 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, M-Pesa is an innovation that is celebrated the world over. It is an innovation by an individual, but Safaricom took it up as their own innovation. This means this country can come up with world class innovations if institutions can put money into research. In the recent past, the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) came up with the National Defence University. It is a landmark thinking that will bring together very experienced officers from different sub-sectors of defence to sit together and think on strategy, innovation and research with a view to coming up with policies in ... view
