• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: You approved my Statement I had sought from the CS through the Committee. The Question has not been answered. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: It is okay, Hon. Speaker. Thank you. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion as amended. I thank the Mover of the Motion, Hon. Chris Wamalwa. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: It is the right of every Kenyan to own a national ID. Many of the speakers have alluded, and I agree with them, to the fact that IDs are everything. It is life in this country. Without an ID, you are not even a Kenyan. It means that people who have attained the age of 18 years and have not acquired this document are not Kenyans by law. It is very important that we decentralise the issuance of IDs, so that we can reduce the level of corruption attributed to the process. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I would urge that as we agree as a House to decentralise issuance of IDs, we should also ensure that there are better and improved ways of making sure the documents are obtained or issued at the lowest administrative unit, namely the sub-location. We should also have a mechanism of follow up to ensure that the document is accessed by every Kenyan within that particular locality. By doing that, we will make life easier for most of our people. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Lastly, Yatta is an expansive constituency. For the disadvantaged groups like women and the youth who do not have money in their pockets, it becomes a challenge for them to apply and follow up on the process especially when it entails travelling from one sub-location to the constituency. They spend days at the sub-county level trying to follow up on the process of the issuance of the document. By decentralising issuance of IDs, we will reduce distance and time wastage. I support this Motion as amended. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I know Dr. Muraguri as a former Director of the National Aids and STI Control Programme (NASCOP). Even in that institution, he did a commendable job. I strongly support his appointment. Secondly, I believe that in his new position as PS in the Ministry of Health, he is going to fix the mess that is now within the health sector. I support. Thank you very much. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise also to join my colleagues in supporting the proposed commissioners for the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). I thank the President and our Committee for a job well done. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: However, I have some issues. The issue I have is that in the spirit of our Constitution, in any appointments, we are looking at professionals, competencies and experiences and also perceptions. But nobody is thinking about the youth of this country. They form the biggest percentage of the population. Future nominations should include the youth. view
• 17 Dec 2015 in National Assembly: We have seen and we know that corruption largely concerns stealing of money. If the Chairman who is an auditor is appointed, we are going to see reduction of the theft of our funds. I support and thank you. view
