• 9 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker for protecting me. The air conditioners should be switched on because most Members on that side are sleeping. That was a noble project and to avoid further corruption, the Government should put in place mechanisms to tackle past corrupt schemes like Goldenberg. As hon. Wandayi has said, many Members who do not want to listen to me talk about Goldenberg could have been beneficiaries. This was also said by hon. Midiwo. We want to get to the bottom of this. If the Government is committed to fighting corruption - and I do not want to ... view
• 9 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion, which is very timely. Kenya is the regional giant or the biggest economy in the region. As the Mover has said - and it is a pity - we have a penetration of 15 per cent and the 85 per are in darkness. One thing that we should not forget is that in the last one year, there has been a lot of improvement and many connections in many places in the country. I hope that, that trend will continue. view
• 9 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: If you compare the economy of Kenya to those of South Africa and Ethiopia, we have an economic growth of below 5 per cent while Ethiopia has an economic growth of over 12 per cent annually. One of the reasons why some of those countries are growing very fast in the Sub- Saharan Africa is power connection. If we can offer cheap power to industrialists for production, the cost of doing business would be cheaper. We will attract more foreign investments and our economy will grow in double digits. That is good for diversification and competition. It is also good ... view
• 9 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you. The Mover of this Motion also talked about compensation. So many people have lost not only their houses, but small gadgets like fridges and ovens. They blow up. When you go to complain, you do not get any answer. I think Kenya Power should compensate those people who lose their gadgets because of power outages which are very common. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view

• 3 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. I rise to support the Motion and congratulate hon. Tiyah Galgalo for bringing such a timely Motion. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I just want to say that the money that the Government is spending to mitigate some of the effects of floods and all the other calamities that are caused by heavy rains is enough to contain the water through dams in most of the rivers in the affected areas. I have worked in Isiolo and I am sure hon. Galgalo knows ... view
• 2 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I am wondering whether the Leader of Majority Party, whom I respect very much, is in order to take more time than he is supposed to. He has spoken for a long time and there are very many other hon. Members who would wish to contribute. Is he in order to keep talking for nearly 30 minutes and repeating himself? view
• 26 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to seek clarification on what is happening. Why would the invitation by the visiting President of the USA to meet an important Kenyan, like the CJ, raise eyebrows, yet it is a normal visit? Does it mean that every time the President of the USA visits Africa--- view
