• 3 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Fourthly as I sit, I think the problem in Trans Nzoia is lack of personnel. He has not mentioned anything to do with personnel, whether there is going to be additional staff or not. I want him to give us an answer on that. Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. view
• 26 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. I would like to appreciate the mover of this Motion for donating his time to me. As we debate about education for the children who come from poor backgrounds, I also wish to add a leaf that there are students with special needs who are also bright. Sometimes, these needy students are forgotten because in most cases, they are not taken to school. If we can establish this databank even for these children with special needs, they can also benefit from the allocation of bursary so that they can also ... view
• 20 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me also contribute to this Motion because I think I am lucky to be where I am. My community where I was born managed to contribute to my school fees both for primary and secondary school. This continued up to university where I did my degree course and when I further did my MA. This was because of my community. As a Member of Parliament, I went home for two weeks and you can imagine I saw very desperate cases. There were three children whom I thought I could sell my piece of land to ... view
• 20 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Given that the Motion is asking us to establish a databank, it will be much easier for Members of Parliament to be able to get who is where. From what I am told by those who have been there before, sometimes corruption and favouritism comes to play when issuing bursaries. You will find a family which can afford school fees getting these bursaries. But now with this information readily available it will be much easier for one to be able to get the right people to go to school. I am saying this out of experience. It will be very ... view
• 20 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Therefore, I support the Motion, firstly, because establishing a database is not a big deal and, secondly, because I come from a background where students run up and down. In fact, most of the students who score 70 per cent in those areas are genius because, you may find that one does not have a book but he goes to class. He might go to view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, Sir, old as I am – I am 55 years old - I would also like to take this opportunity to salute particularly my brother, Wesley, who is my neighbour, and who has brought this Motion to this House. I pass his home before I go to my home. I am proud of him. view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: I watched him run in Boston and I just held my breathe because of what happened. However, immediately after that we knew that he was well. You saw what happened if you watched television. view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is important that the Government takes drastic measures to track down our athletes, although there are those who defect. Hon. Lagat has not told you that but if you gave him more time, he would have told you that some of our athletes have defected to the neighbouring country. That is true. We have somebody who won a gold medal - I do not know in which race - and he is in Uganda, to be more specific. It is important that we track down our athletes because they have done us proud. view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Because of our unique talent, the whole world admires Kenyans. I always take pride in seeing them running, winning and beating countries like Germany, our former view
• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. First, I would like to congratulate Hon. Zuleikha for bringing this Motion. view
