• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Many Kenyan house girls are not trained in that specific field. Many Kenyan housemaids are Form Four leavers. Some of them are Standard Eight leavers while others are diploma holders with accounting option. So, when they get a job of a housemaid, they get surprised. Countries like the Philippines and Nepal have colleges that train house manpower. They also train plumbers to specifically go and work abroad. That is why you get a housemaid from a country like the Philippines earning Kshs80,000 while an employee from Kenya earns Kshs30,000 as a house maid. An employee from the Philippines working as ... view
• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: It is true that many workers from this country go to the Middle East. Why is that the case? Migrant workers to the United States of America (USA) and those going to western countries do not get work permits in this country. They go there on visiting visas and get work permits while there. If today you tell a driver in Kenya to look for a job in the USA, it is nearly impossible. He has to spend millions of shillings to get there and then apply for work permit once he gets work. If you are looking for a ... view
• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Another challenge we have is that many of our house girl immigrant workers do not go for house girl jobs. They just enjoy travelling by flight. Many people who sign contracts to migrate for professional jobs like security guards and clerical jobs do not have challenges because many people know they are definitely going to work in those capacities. Let me illustrate using the scenario of many domestic workers in our country. In this country, housemaids, including those working for Hon. Members seated in this House, work until late in the night. Sometimes it is not easy to enforce a ... view
• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Every employment contract is like a law contract. For every law contract there are challenges because both parties mutually agree. So, when the other party feels that mutual terms are not 100 per cent fulfilled, there is bound to be a problem. I always tell people that if they engage in a law contract, they should solve the problem. We are not saying that Saudi Arabia is not accessible. If you want a visa today to go to Saudi Arabia, you just need to go to the consulate, get a visa and visit Saudi Arabia and address the problem. view
• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: I appreciate the work of the Ministry of Labour. In 2007 when we were employed, we could not access any labour attaché . When you lost your passport, you were definitely in no man’s land. When you lose your passport nowadays when you are out of the country, labour officials are in constant communication with you. You are referred to the consulate office. There are labour workers who help you get another passport. Earlier on, you were told to travel back home and get a replacement. I am urging this Government to allocate money to labour workers abroad… There are ... view
• 8 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you. I support the Report. view
• 25 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to contribute to this Bill. It is a very important Bill, especially for us fathers. Matters of adoption are very sensitive, not only in Kenya, but all over the world. It is a process where you remove a kid from his original lifestyle to another one. It is a life you are giving to mature people to live with that they have not given birth to. In the Kenyan society, there is a lot of economic frustration to a point where young mothers are even leaving their children in the streets. Fathers ... view

• 25 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 11 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to join my colleagues in deliberating the amendment Bill by Hon. Jude Njomo. First, I appreciate the fact that Hon. Jude thought about the issues of banking especially with regard to protecting Kenyans. Now, Kenyans do not borrow because they plan to borrow. They borrow because of economic pressure and despair caused by economic factors like lack of capital to start business, lack of enough resources to build a house and lack of fiscal planning. Because of those factors, our people find themselves cornered by banking institutions, shylocks and ... view
