• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to contribute to this very important debate. The Committee did a good job but their Report has some Clauses which hon. Members feel that if we adopt them, there will be no time to change them. Regarding the issue of party- hopping, the amendments that have been brought to this House by Hon. Aluoch Olago resonate very well with hon. Members here because there was fear that people’s rights are being curtailed. view
• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want you to use Standing Orders No.1 because there is need for consultation. You also have to consult the Speaker because he said there would be no amendment on the mother Motion. We also need to consult each other and re-look this matter. The most unfortunate thing that can happen in this country is for us to throw out this Report. It will be six months before we reconstitute another Committee. The elections are less than one year away. Both the Jubilee and the CORD coalitions went to negotiations and it is like we have agreed ... view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to second. We had a meeting. We were briefed and because we wanted the Joint Select Committee to finalize and do consultations with the principals, we opted to seek that extension so that the Report can be tabled tomorrow afternoon. I beg to second. view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this very important Bill. I want to support it. I thank Hon. Muthomi Njuki for coming up with a very creative way of raising revenue for this country through tourism, not only from international tourists, but also from local tourists who will be visiting the mausoleum. This is a very important Bill because it seeks to give the people of Kenya a chance to visit the mausoleum. Jomo Kenyatta, the founding father of this nation, is one of the greatest statesmen recognised all over the world ... view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would like to say this: Jomo Kenyatta was the first Prime Minister of this country and had political experience spanning 40 years. Even by today’s standards, he was a widely-travelled man. He was involved in so many conferences and meetings that culminated into the liberation of this part of Africa; we cannot forget that. There are other view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Pan Africanists like Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, Tom Mboya, Paul Ngei, Bildad Kagia and others who did not participate directly in the struggle for independence of this country. The tombs where these people are buried need to be rehabilitated so that Kenyans can visit them. That way, Kenyans will get an opportunity to learn about the history of this country. I am appealing to the Mover of this Bill, Hon. Muthomi Njuki from Chuka/Igambangómbe Constituency to also provide in the Bill names of those other founding fathers of this nation so that Kenyans can visit their tombs even if it is ... view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: This mausoleum should not only be opened but expanded. That will require some allocation of money from the National Assembly. We will need to teach foreigners who come to this country how Kenya was born through the Mau Mau struggle. About two days ago, I was watching TV and I learnt that in Mount Kenya Forest there were caves that were used as hospitals for the Mau Mau warriors who got sick. I could see that those caves were neglected. Those caves were big enough to be hospitals and they were bombed by the colonial government. It is unfortunate that ... view
• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: This Bill is very good and I am urging Members of the National Assembly to support it. If we do so, within a short time, we will see a lot of money being generated. Knowledge will be spread; people will know when Jomo Kenyatta was born, where he went to school, how he negotiated in 1945 for our independence, how the Mau Mau fought, and how the Kapenguria Six suffered in detention in Kapenguria. When you go to the developed countries, you will realize that their history has been conserved; a lot of money has been put to conserve those ... view
