• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: ensure that public utility land is set aside in settlement areas, and that the Act is implemented to the letter. At the same time, there are questions of standardising land prices. I think we have a big land problem even within our localities. For instance, you will find that within one area or constituency, land is being sold on a second rate where people speculate. When they hear that Ng-CDF is buying land for a school, the price goes up threefold. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Therefore, there is need in this particular policy guideline to insist on establishing a price of land that is applicable across the board so that with this standardisation, we save a lot of money to acquire adequate land for expansion of schools. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I support the Motion. Thank you. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. On behalf of the people of Teso North, I condole with the families that lost loved ones. I wish to just emphasise two things that I feel need to be done. One area of major concern is the enforcement and implementation of traffic rules. We have a fairly elaborate Traffic Act 2003. Some of the rules in the Act have not been implemented. I just want to cite one example in Section 30(6) which provides that drivers of public service vehicles are required to be re-tested every three years. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: We have the rules, but enforcement is the major issue. I wish to urge the Cabinet Secretaries in charge of transport and security to ensure that our laws are enforced. view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Report and its adoption on the vetting of the Chairperson and members of IPOA. I would like to talk about three key areas. view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: There are three areas I want to put my voice on. One is on the vetting process and how it happens. I am a member of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security. The vetting process, as has been clearly explained by the Chair of the Committee, the members who are listed fulfilled both constitutional and professional requirements. On their achievement, it is important to point out here that the first board of IPOA did some good work. Indeed, the impression that has been created by a few Members who have talked is that they did not perform. One ... view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: So, I urge that we approve this new board and give it a chance to perform. It should be able to operationalise and be felt on the ground. I also urge the House to consider the budget of IPOA to make sure that we strengthen and give it the teeth to perform. view
• 22 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: With that, I support the approval of these nominees. view
• 15 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Asante Mhe. Spika wa Muda wa kunipa nafasi. Nataka kuchanagia Hoja hii kwa kusema kuwa ni muhimu kufidia hawa wakulima wa Kilifi. Kilifi ni mahali nimewahi kufanya kazi na mimea miwili ambayo inaletea wakulima pesa ni korosho na mnazi. Korosho, kama vile tulizungumzia hapo awali, ni mmea ambo ulikuwa unawapatia wakulima faida lakini mtambo wa korosho ulifungwa.
