• 23 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to comment on the Petition by my brother, Hon. Iringo. I speak from a point of information because I have been on this particular road and I have witnessed and heard the cries of the people of Igembe Central. It is not just Igembe Central that is affected. This road connects Igembe South, Igembe North, Isiolo North and Isiolo South. So, this road leads to the business hub of Meru and Isiolo.

• 23 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank you my sister Hon. Gladys Wanga, for bringing this Motion. Information is very important in the management and treatment of cancer. Our people need to be sensitized so that they are able to go for early detection and be treated as early as possible. We need to recognise institutions like hospices. In Meru, we have a Meru Hospice that does not receive support from the Government. If we were able to support those institutions, they would do even better in terms of supporting cancer patients. I believe that devolution meant bringing cancer ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you. Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support this amendment. I would like to thank all the speakers who have spoken before me. I congratulate the Hon. Leader for the Majority Party, the Chair of my Committee, Hon. Chepkong’a, and each and every Member who have spoken today. So far, we have not received any opposition and I believe that none is forthcoming. We are aware that we passed a Constitution that 65 per cent of Kenyans said it was good. In this Constitution, we said that we want the two-thirds issue to be raised and applied in the elective or ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: ensure that the letter and spirit of the Constitution is being satisfied by us ensuring that this Bill passes into law. It is an obligation on the State to ensure that we take legislative measures to ensure that this Bill is passed. We have had various decisions that have come before courts. The courts have made it clear that though we have a progressive Constitution, the belief is that real progress in society can only be realized if all citizens participate fully in governance. By passing this Bill today, we shall be ensuring that the voice of the woman is ... view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I can see Hon. Mbadi is expressing a lot of love and I am happy. I wish Hon. T.J could also do the same because we have been in school together and he knows the kind of love that we have shared all along. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Let us have the women going through the same process. Let them be in politics and come to this House.

• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: pillar and political pillar. How can you have the third pillar in society without the most important woman in your life? I am sure with Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ smiling in the manner in which he is doing, he is only agreeing with me and he has nothing else to add. Mother Theresa said: “A drop in the ocean is only a drop. But without that drop, the ocean will be less full.” What we are asking for today is to allow this Bill to go through. By allowing it, it does not necessarily mean you are going to look at ... view
• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support what has been said by my brother, Hon. Mithika Linturi. When I got this information, I took upon myself to know the background as to why that charge was preferred. I was interested in knowing the law under which they were charged. What shocked me most is that the two Germans were not charged under the Kenyan laws. They were charged under the East African Community Customs Management Act of 2004. Section 202 of that Act talks about carrying concealed goods and packaging goods. The information I got from the Officer Commanding Station (OCS) ... view
