• 9 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: of borrowing the money which, even the children who are seated in our galleries, have to repay even at this stage of their lives. view
• 25 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to respect hon. Kaluma. However, I am compelled to say that he can oppose the Motion if he wants, but he cannot claim that it is illegal. He should respect other people’s views. This is not his Motion. It is the Motion of somebody else who feels that we should enhance the work of the KPR. So, hon. Kaluma should respect the people who brought this Motion to this House. Thank you. view
• 18 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I stand to support the Motion and I want to confirm that the Motion is very timely, knowing the challenges the northern counties are experiencing. I did not stand to support the Motion because I come from the north. I stand to support the Motion because there is a major problem in those areas. I think Kenyans have 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
• 18 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: good memories in terms of what happens in northern Kenya, particularly areas along the regional borders. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, from pre-colonial to post-Independence times, those areas have experienced cattle rustling and cross-border conflict that largely affects northern Kenya. Things have not changed! The cattle rustling of 1950s is still present and that is clearly indicative that our country has not appreciated the unique problems of this area and, therefore, it has not designed security apparatus to address the unique circumstances of those areas and deal with cattle rustling and cross-border conflict. I support this Motion. I consider the ... view
• 18 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: I support the Motion in terms of recruiting and increasing the National Police Service. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, recently when we had a clan-based conflict, we heavily relied on the support and the skill of the KPR. I think it is important for the country to appreciate the mandate of the security forces to restore law and order and protect life and property. But again, the country must appreciate their challenges. I am saying this because KPR - which is localized in those areas - understands the situation and they are well trained. They are recognized as a unit ... view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to read my Statement. Pursuant to Standing Order No. 44 (2) (c ), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare regarding access to employment by the youth in the country as stipulated in Article of 55 (c ) of the Constitution and other Kenyans. Hon. Deputy Speaker, Kenya is experiencing a high unemployment rate which currently stands at over 57 per cent. However, there are thousands of non-Kenyans working in this country, thus denying our qualified youth and other citizens opportunities to secure ... view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I do not know whether the Leader of Majority Party remembers that we will be away on recess. I do not know whether the House will be recalled in the next two weeks. view
• 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support the nomination of these two great ladies. I feel proud and I want to confirm, as a Member from the CORD Coalition, that the Jubilee Government is keen to appoint people who belong to other parties. I want to confirm that Ms. Saadia comes from Wajir County which overwhelmingly supported CORD during the last general elections and she deserves this appointment. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think sometimes we need to support the Executive where they do appropriate things like today because of balancing in their appointments. I have no ... view
• 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to confirm that I am supporting the Motion and I was on the issue of misunderstanding about the issue of marginalization. I was saying that some Members were alluding that some communities are no longer marginalised and I think that perception is wrong. I think I need to draw their attention to Article 56 and Article 260 of the Constitution for their interpretation of what marginalised communities and minorities mean. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is very unfortunate when Members see three names or two faces from northern Kenya then they think ... view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to contribution to this Motion. I rise to support the Motion which I think is very timely. Hon. Wario must have been experiencing these problems for too long. First and foremost, I would like to say that this kind of flooding is induced or it is artificial flooding. The flood waters are deliberately released by the institutions. This causes induced displacement. view
