• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Report talks about harmonisation of parastatals and State corporations. It has taken time since the President announced that these reforms are on the way. The reorganisation should be done because most of these parastatals consume a lot of money. They do not generate any money. All parastatals that do not generate money, cannot pay their workers and depend on the Exchequer should be done away with. This harmonisation should look into that, so that the parastatals that generate income and can stand on their own without gobbling the little resources in the Government coffers are the only ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The Kshs493 million that has been allocated to infrastructure in schools is not enough, but it is something. I thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee for this. We need to build better facilities for our children. In poor rural areas, we have grass thatched classrooms. They cannot afford iron sheets. Others learn under trees. Priority should be given to those areas especially in northern Kenya, some parts of the North Rift, Kitui where I come from and the Coast Province where schools are in dire need of refurbishment, so that they can build the schools to better learning institutions. The ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: An amount of Kshs1 billion has been allocated to the Kenya Wildlife Services (KWS). It was a surprise to see a lot of ivory being seized in Thailand which had passed through our airports. Our security personnel do not catch the poachers who kill our elephants and sell their tusks and ivory in Asia. These items pass through our ports and airports. The Kshs1 billion that has been allocated to the KWS should be utilised properly to take care of our wildlife. If we allow our lions, elephants and all our game to be killed by poachers, we should not ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: A total of Kshs225 million has been allocated to the Kenyatta National Hospital Cancer Centre. This is a drop in the ocean, but for a good purpose. Cancer patients have suffered so much at the Kenyatta National Hospital. There is only one machine and once it breaks, they suffer. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker for protecting me even from the leader of the National Party (TNA). I was saying that Kshs225 million is a small amount of money. Patients at the Kenyatta National Hospital are suffering and everywhere else. Many cancer patients are suffering 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
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: and cannot get attention because we have not invested more in machines to screen and treat them. I wish to appeal to this National Assembly to look at the plight of Kenyans who are suffering from cancer and appropriate more money for the treatment of cancer in all the counties. We should allocate more money to health towards this. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The Kshs548 million that has been allocated for distribution of water in Nairobi City will reduce the suffering of Kenyans. Residents in many estates in this City do not have storage tanks. So long as water does not flow every time in our taps, the residents of Nairobi City will keep suffering. I wish to appeal to the National Assembly to appropriate more money next time for the residents of Nairobi to get sufficient water. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Over Kshs3 billion has been allocated for police modernisation. This should be used to fight terrorism. When I came in, I came to you, hon. Speaker and told you that we have just got in and we are very few Members. I asked you whether the Members of the National Assembly are scared of terrorism and whether they have not come to the House because we have been threatened. You assured me that it is not terrorism because yesterday we were full. I am sure from the look on their faces, they are a bit scared. Therefore, this money should ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: As I wind up, there are people who are called “village elders” in all constituencies. They work but they are not paid anything. Whenever we appropriate budgets, let us make sure that village elders are paid something because they do a lot of work. They are not sub-chiefs; they are elders. view
