• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the other thing that I want to say on this election Bill is that I know in a way it is trying to regulate expenses. Yes, it is good to regulate the expenses of the candidates. It is good to regulate the expenses of the party for the benefit of the candidates. You can see some Members of Parliament present here and elsewhere including Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) are busy trying to develop their constituencies. If you are not regulated, you will find somebody giving money and he is nominated. We want elections in future ... view
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you and I support the Motion. view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill because there will be some sense in the campaigns. Without any proper arrangement, you will find some people saving funds for campaigns and when the time comes for the elections, they just go and buy voters out there. We want Kenyans to choose, or elect, leaders based on their ideas and manifestoes. As it is now, all one needs to do is to have Kshs10 million, go out there and without any regard give out money from one house to another in the village. After that he or she will be ... view
• 7 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Secondly, people sometime go into elections because of their own interests. Yesterday, I had an opportunity to visit one of the counties and I was impressed with what is happening in Machakos County. I want to say that the governor has done a very good job. He has a very good plan to help the people of Machakos County. I was there as late as 8.00 p.m. in the evening and people were working. Those are the people we want to lead this country. As it is--- view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let us get a bit of clarification from the department. I was out but I got this message that there was discussion on Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). First of all, I want a clarification because when they gave compensation last time in Trans-Nzoia, there was a bit of discrimination, as stated by hon. Pukose and hon. Wakhungu. I want further clarification that those who insisted and stayed put in the camp, were given Kshs400,000 while the others were given Kshs10,000. This was discrimination. If there are variations in these cases, they should not be given ... view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: It is pathetic because when they came from Mango Farm they were 54 families in 1992. They settled on a five-acre farm. Today, we are talking about how many years? Now there are almost 800 households still on five-acre farm. Is there any plan the Government has to help these particular families in three places, namely Bosnia, Chechnya and Rwanda? These are the villages where these people are living in. view
• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I just want to make it clear. If the Vice-Chairman does not have the facts, he should contact hon. Pukose, me or hon. Wafula. We will give him the facts on IDPs in Trans Nzoia. I want clarification on the issue of two sets of IDPs. He has not gotten it right. He has got it wrong. view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I just want to second the amendment. I think the learned friend, hon. Kaluma, has made it very technical. I think you got it but my addition is that because the case is before the court, it is better for us to leave it at that so that we do not get ourselves involved in issues that we will not be able to explain. So, I think the recommendation is that let the court deal with the matter and then we deal with it. This is because at the end of the day, I think the report itself ... view
• 5 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: I second the amendment. Thank you. view
• 23 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Motion which has come at the right time. I remember at one time I spoke so passionately about flooding, particularly in my area. Looking at this Motion, the Government is asked to build multi-dams and ensure that they are equitably spread while completing the existing ones. Whoever brought this Motion to the House is actually coming to my rescue. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all, I am made to understand; and there is a--- view
