• 28 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I stand to support the amendment and say that it will assist in the devolution process that is in this Constitution. Instead of concentrating power to the Cabinet Secretary in Nairobi, you find that even the CECM at the county level will also be accountable as far as the process of financing is concerned. It is a good amendment and I support it. Thank you. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table of the House:- The Report of the Select Committee on Regional Integration on the Committee’s visit to the East African Community institution in Entebbe, Kampala and Jinja, in Uganda from 27th to 31st January 2015. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. May I take this opportunity to try and energise the debate that is before this House today. I would like previous speakers to know that this House is not a court. What the Committee was undertaking was not a judicial process. When you cite Article 159 of the Constitution, you turn this House into a court, which it is not. Neither can we turn this House into a tribunal. We are seeking to establish the basis upon which the President can proceed to have a tribunal constituted. Other issues will then follow. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The Committee has done what it was supposed to do. If you look at this Report, you will find that the Committee conducted public participation. The Committee asked whoever had issues with the Petition to appear before it by advertising in the daily newspapers. The issues that are being brought today by way of an amendment are just diversionary. If there was an issue that ought to have arisen at the right stage, then it ought to have been brought to the attention of the Committee when it called for public participation. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: We cannot allow Members to go on a fishing expedition. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am on my feet. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The Committee had to deal with the issues that were before it. We are told that this Motion must be amended to suit certain interests, but we cannot accept that. We are not here to serve particular interests. We are here to make laws and oversee institutions. When this Petitioner appeared before us with issues that were before us, the Committee did its bit by ensuring that it asked the public to address it, which they did. That is why we are saying that the amendment is null and void; it has been brought to the House late. view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I oppose the amendment. view
