• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. At the outset, the discussion about the revenue sharing formula that has brought a stalemate at the Senate and a standstill in the operations of this country shows that we need to revisit some of the roles that the Senate and National Assembly play. view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Innocent Kenyans who are hardworking people who are employed by county governments have gone without salaries for months because some people decided to play politics on a grave matter that affects the very nature of the Constitution, 2010 which is devolution. Moving forward, we hope that this will never ever happen again. The intervention by the Budget and Appropriations Committee and this House should give precedent that we cannot be held hostage by the Senate of the Republic of Kenya.

• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: There are Kenyans who need services to be provided. Supremacy battles between individuals should not come at the expense of the welfare of our society. Most of the employees in our counties are young people. Some of us here can do without a salary for three or four months. However, those newly employed people in the county governments cannot do without a salary for one month, and then you starve them for three months just because you want to show who is superior and who is not. I do not want to talk beyond that but this should never be ... view

• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you for that kind consideration. From the outset, as a young person of this country who was elected as a Member of Parliament at a young age, I would like to congratulate Mr. Makorre Wilson not because he did not get to the final stage of being approved, but because his name made it to the Floor of this House. In the history of Parliament, it will be in the Hansard that a young person from the remote area dared to dream, dared to apply for a job of that high standing and went through a committee of Parliament, ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Secondly, this lady, Ann Nderitu, proved to us what I have constantly said on the Floor of this House that this country is ready for women leadership, but women leadership does not need to be forced down our throats. Women who are qualified, like Ms. Ann Nderitu, will get appointed by the President and unanimously passed by a committee and the whole House, not because they are women, but because they are qualified for the positions. That is what I am talking about. There are qualified women and people want to be led by qualified people, whether they are men, ... view
• 24 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this National Assembly, it has been said many times, has become a rubber stamp of the Executive. That everything that has been pushed to us by the Executive get passed with the least of questions. That is the reason we have approved people before who do not have the qualifications. We even try to fill up their CVs, so that we can approve what the Executive has said. But this Report shows that we have an independent National Assembly. Probably, that is why the advisory by the Chief Justice was issued because they are afraid that if we ... view
