• 25 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. I want to withdraw the amendment. In solidarity with all the Kenyans out there and Generation Z, I withdraw my amendment and reject the Finance Bill, 2024. view
• 20 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to reject the Finance Bill 2024. From the onset, I just want to bring to your attention that Gen Z has been encouraging us to steal the Bill and run out with it. We hope that the Speaker will communicate that the process does not work that way. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Finance Bill 2024 has a lot of grievances, whether the motor vehicle or bread tax. Exempting VAT from the transfer of businesses makes me wonder; whose business is this that wants to be acquired? There are also too many other ... view
• 6 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I thank and congratulate the Budget and Appropriations Committee on this specific Vote, especially on probation and after-care. If we can, let us ensure the relevant Departmental Committee ensures that these funds are used to rehabilitate those who have been released from prison because most of them just end up falling back into the same crimes. These funds can really change the lives of ex-prisoners if they are utilised well. I support this specific Vote. view
• 6 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Apologies. I was worried you were not seeing me. Kindly, let me recognise and thank you for allowing Uhuru Secondary School from Embakasi West to come to Parliament. view
• 6 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: Just last week, I opened a twin laboratory in that school. I want to thank the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee for the money that he has appropriated to the school which is being affected by electricity. We need to relocate some of the power lines. I welcome them to see where we get funds so that we can do the work in their school. view
• 4 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 4 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: I want to do both. I rise on the same Standing Order 44(2)(c). The matter has been raised to the Departmental Committee on Lands. However, the people who are implementing this issue on the ground are from the Ministry of Interior and National Administration. We are in a dire situation right now because we are creating Internally 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
• 4 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: Displaced Persons (IDPs), as we speak. We have demolitions that are on-going within our constituencies in Nairobi City County, as it has been mentioned by Hon. Mwago. view
• 4 Jun 2024 in National Assembly: We do not know where the boundaries of riparian lands are. They are six metres in certain areas and 60 metres in others. The people who are demolishing houses are going back to demolish further in areas that were initially marked as the boundaries. It seems somebody somewhere is revising those riparian lands and increasing those portions. This will lead to massive loss of property and many people will become homeless. We should halt those demolitions for a moment, until we have a bipartisan agreement and discussion within the multi-agencies that are concerned with this matter here in Nairobi City ... view
• 2 May 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I echo the comments of the Leader of the Minority Party. It is worth noting that the old Panel will cease to exist. More importantly, we request anybody who would want to proceed to the civil societies to recognise the fact that those panelists have been given an opportunity to reapply for those jobs. jThey have not been fired and they have an opportunity to apply because there are more positions. Thank you. view
