• 19 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, protect me from hon. Angwenyi who is my friend. view
• 19 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, road transport in Kenya accounts for 92 per cent and railway transport accounts for a very minimal percentage. Unless we change it and make it vice versa, this country will not develop. It will be held at the mercy of the big tycoons who have big lorries. They will try to oppose everything but we have to support this for this country to develop; for the future generations. There is some misspelling. Instead of writing “berth” they have substituted it with “birth” which means giving birth. However, it is berth: The berths at the port. I ... view

• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: He is very close to me. He is learning, which is good. He is a good young man. Hon. Speaker, I want to support this Motion.

We want to give these Chairmen some freedom to lead Committees but for the answers to come from Cabinet Secretaries. The current system is inadequate. For example, if we have the ruling Executive as the Minority in the House, will an hon. Member from CORD give an answer from a Cabinet Secretary who is from the Jubilee Coalition? Those are some of the questions. I support the changes that the Committee came up with. Few Cabinet Secretaries have submitted their reports. The Constitution says that they have ... view
• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: The comparative analysis on pages 13 to 18 of this Report is insightful because it shows us how the presidential system has addressed the challenge to ensure that parliamentary oversight is exercised and without it, the Executive will continue getting worse. They will be dictating and use the tyranny of numbers to bulldoze all the agenda. This House has responsibility and mandate under Articles 95, 125 and 153 of the Constitution to receive answers in a plenary. Article 153(4)(b) provides for the reports by the Cabinet Secretaries to be full and regular, which we do not see. We must define ... view
• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: In this transitional period, we should ensure that every Ministry appoints Parliamentary liaison officers and that is what I wanted the Leader of Majority Party to hear. While concluding my statement--- view
