• 21 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, this is a very urgent matter. Assets are being disposed of and yet the shareholders who are the majority of Kenya and whom we represent in this House are losing. I would only request the Committee to give the issue priority. Once losses are incurred and investments losses are taken up by the poor minority shareholders, our people will lose and they do not have power to face court battles. I believe this is a very urgent matter that we, as the representatives of people, must address without any delay and should be given priority. Hon. Speaker, ... view
• 21 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. Seven days will fall within this Session. I will expect to have an answer within seven days. Let seven days be seven days, if Kenyans have to judge us as their representatives. I request the Chair and the Vice-Chair of the Committee to work very fast. You can even work over the weekend.

• 21 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, allow them to work over the weekend in order to give me what I want. This is a company whose board should be responsible and responsive to the demands of this Parliament. Thank you. view
• 20 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, Sir. I support the amendment. Section 6(1) of the NACADA Act makes Mututho more qualified. He has been in this Parliament and he has also been in the private sector. However, Section 6(2)(a) states that a person shall not be appointed under sub-section (1)(a),(h), (j) and (k) unless such person is of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 20 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, as I speak today, Mr. Mututho is not a pretender. He really fought for the “Mututho” Act in this House. That law is a credit to this House today. That law also addresses a national disaster today. Almost every home in this country is affected either directly or indirectly by alcohol and drug abuse. Considering the enormous size of the cartels in this country, the size of the brewers and what they can do for us, and considering that Mr. Mututho is innocent until proved guilty, and that he has shown passion and the Committee agrees, I ... view

• 19 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is a good idea and I support it. We are looking for systems and regulations, but I am also considering that we have the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF) and the Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF). I would like that this House considers merging all these funds to become Uwezo Fund, which will be a fund that we will contribute to annually.

I am also having a problem with the kind of work that these funds will do and urge our people to consider going back to the cottage industries of earlier years.

That can enhance savings which will go a long way in making our people break away from a cycle of poverty. So, the money should be given to institutions or organizations that will be able ... view
