Madam Deputy Speaker, what I do not understand is why people claim to be innocent. One of the culprits is my own county of Wajir. They always say that they did not know that, that was the requirement; they do not know how to do this or that. I am requesting the Committee on Health to do a little bit more probing instead of buying the explanation of “we do not know what was happening” or “we did not know how to keep the records.” Right now, there is drought in Wajir County; there is no water. There is a ...

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I am shocked that somebody who has been employed since 2014 can be dismissed that easily. Are there no laws in this country? What is the motive of the person dismissing them? Who are they trying to create space for?

When we passed the new revenue Bill that included the additional money from the national Government, I thought the least amount of money that was received by any county was Kshs200 million. Even if there was no other money, surely, that extra money should have been used to pay these teachers. What the petitioners are requesting needs to be amended. Those ECDE teachers need to be reinstated and not re-employed. If they are re-employed, they will lose all their benefits in terms of pension and everything else. I do not want to say that our governors have become the lord ...

Madam Deputy Speaker. I thought ECD teachers are the most important. Imagine how difficult it is to even just toilet train a child. It is so difficult and it has its own challenges. Training a child on the basics of reading and memorizing until they learn how to do so is difficult. That is somebody who should be taken care of by everybody. Otherwise, if this is the kind of treatment that they get, it means we will have a generational knowledge gap. I do not think the people of Nyamira County deserve that. Normally, when you refer issues to ...

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I also wish to thank Sen. Halake for bringing this issue to the attention of this House. On 25th February, 2022, I checked my party status and found that I am in People’s Trust Party. It had been changed on 22nd February. Before that, I belonged to the Jubilee Party. How do you explain that? I had to remove myself from that party for me to attend the National Delegates Conference (NDC). It is sad that some of these things are happening in this country. Who even monitors online borrowing? ...

you assume its per annum. Later on, you come to realise that you are being charged 10 per cent every month. Who takes care of Kenyans interest in such issues? At this rate, do we even know whether voter registers are safe? If somebody can change my party on 22nd February, should we even trust such a party that can do shady things like deregistering somebody from their own party to another party four days before the NDC? What is that? Even the land registers are now in digital form. Are we sure that our title deeds are safe? When ...
