• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am not so much affected by the human-wildlife conflict which I have heard from my colleagues. As mentioned by Hon. Nyikal, we have heard this Petition twice. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: It is important for us to note that this country gets a lot of foreign exchange from tourism. People out there struggle to come and see wildlife in this country. It is important for the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife to take this seriously and contain the situation. This is one of the foreign exchange earners of this country. As it is now, we are leaning more towards human protection than animal protection. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I once visited China and saw children being attracted to dummy animals - like a dummy elephant. However, in this country, we are blessed to have wild animals and we should not take it for granted. The Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife should protect those animals as well in as much as we are on the human protection side. I support this Petition. The Ministry should protect the wild animals because tourists travel to see them and this earns money for our country. view

• 18 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Chair of the Special Funds Accounts Committee, Hon. Kathuri for having done a very good job and the substantive Speaker has alluded to this. In his Report, I want to appreciate the fact that the NG-CDF which was created for the benefit of all of us is poorly funded. Therefore, in my view, we should revisit this issue and amend the NG-CDF Act so that we can increase its allocation which is only one per cent as per the monitoring and evaluation budget to about two percent. The NG-CDF ... view
• 18 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: standstill. In my case, I have about two projects. One is a dispensary which I initiated and spent about Kshs2 million. Therefore, I feel that the NG-CDF should reflex its muscles and give money to complete some of those projects because county governments have ignored them and they have become white elephants in the respective constituencies. I support the Report and commend the Chair for doing a very good job and he should continue that way. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank Hon. Washiali for bringing up this Motion. First and foremost, we have a problem in the country. Lack of parental care is one of the causes. In fact, the Motion, to me, is a tail end of the problems of child care. You find parents, including myself, taking a child to school and leaving them to teachers. So, what happens? The child gets mixed up. The problem is lack of parental care. The other problem that is serious is: “Spare the rod, spoil the child.” Some parents have left their ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: School management normally calls parents to school. I can assure you that from my own records in my constituency, most parents do not even attend those meetings. Therefore, you find that school management is having a problem because they cannot even communicate with the children. Therefore, this is a notice to parents. If you are a parent and you are asked to go to school, do that so that you understand the problems that are being faced by the school. This is a lesson. As we pass this Motion, Mheshimiwa Washiali should also fast-track the counselling aspect because we passed ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to make my remarks very seriously. I would like to ask the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee to please bear with me. We are where we are today because of lack of fiscal discipline among the people who work in the National Treasury. That is where the problem is today. One, we have borrowed a lot more money than we need. A Kshs559 billion deficit is a lot of money. view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when the former President, His Excellency Mwai Kibaki left office, we had a deficit of Kshs70 billion that was borrowed from outside. The Chairman of Budget and Appropriations Committee can sit down with his team and reorganise the functions of the Government to pay that debt. Today, we are talking about Kshs6 trillion to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
