• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to second this Procedural Motion. It is good so that it can thoroughly be deliberated. I wish to second. view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this very important Motion. I congratulate the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for doing a good Report. I also congratulate the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) because they conducted very rigorous interviews which touched on every aspect. Hon. Justice Philomena Mbete Mwilu is a very qualified and seasoned advocate and a legal practitioner who has served for 32 years, nine of which have been spent on the bench. Justice Mwilu has an LLB and is pursuing her LLM. She is very competent with various aspects of Kenyan ... view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Justice and Legal Affairs Report and approve the appointment of Justice Mwilu, this country will get an experienced, composed and liberal person who has fair judgement. The JSC had a very elaborate way of vetting. For them to have come up with that name, they must have burned the midnight oil. I support this Motion. I also urge my colleagues to support this Committee and approve the appointment of Justice Mbete Mwilu to deputise Justice David Maraga. view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to the Motion for Adjournment. It is good time to go and interact with our constituents. As an Hon. Member said earlier on, we need the money that was allocated to constituencies so that as we go, we allocate it to schools, police lines and others areas. view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: In this country, we have talked about corruption for a long time and the fight against it has to be won, if this country has to develop. As the National Assembly, we have a very big part to play and the ball rests in our court. We should ask ourselves, are we, as Members of the National Assembly, above board? Do we own companies which do business and get contracts? Do we influence how those contracts are awarded? Do we protect some people? Do we receive favours so that we do not do certain things? Once we examine ourselves and ... view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: have Athi and Tana Rivers which pass through Ukambani. The Government should provide money to build service dams and more boreholes in Ukambani so as to stop the cycle of poverty. The Kamba are hardworking people, very well educated, very smart but suffer drought now and then. It is time the Jubilee Government took time and made it a priority to provide water in Ukambani for farming, livestock and domestic use. We better stop everything else so that both the national Government and county governments make it a priority to supply water to homesteads. With those few remarks, I support ... view
• 18 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I arise pursuant to provisions of Standing Order No.31(1), to seek that the House does now adjourn until 5.00 p.m. Hon. Speaker, this is in line with the earlier Motion passed by this House today. The reason for seeking this adjournment is to allow the House to consider the Report of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs on the approval and appointment of the Chief Justice of the Republic of Kenya. As the House is aware, the substantive holder of such office is required, by statutory and constitutional principles, to carry some constitutional duties and there ... view
• 18 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Katoo ole Metito. view
• 11 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. I offer my support because it is very important. First, it makes ECDE learning compulsory. Many parents leave their children who have attained that age at home as they go to work. This is because many Kenyan parents belong to the working class. Once ECDE is made compulsory, it will be very good and convenient for parents because they will take their children who have attained that age to the ECDE institutions. All children in this country will also get an opportunity ... view
• 11 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: centres using devolved funds. This Bill will improve awareness on the importance of ECDE by using the Parents Teachers Association (PTA). Clause 51 of the Bill addresses the issue of feeding in ECDE centres, which will improve children intake, especially in rural areas and urban slums. Many children in places that experience drought or from poor neighbourhoods drop out of school. This Bill seeks to encourage feeding programmes to increase enrolment in ECDE classes. The challenge of inadequate physical facilities is addressed by Part III of the Bill, which specifies suitable premises. Each county government has to provide adequate physical ... view
