Millie’s statement that she is the substantive Whip, and Hon. Osoro is the broad-based Whip. We need to understand what he will be doing. I do not where he is today, but you need to give a ruling on the substantive Whip of the House as indicated. view

• 8 Aug 2024 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs regarding fire incidents in four markets within Nairobi City County.

These incidents have had a profound impact on local traders, many of whom have lost their livelihoods and are now seeking assistance to rebuild ... view
• 6 Aug 2024 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise on the same Standing Order 44. I have talked with the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs.

• 25 Jul 2024 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Chairlady, we saw the Senators saying that the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) 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
• 25 Jul 2024 in National Assembly: should be dissolved. However, none of them mentioned the fact that they have been given a fund for oversight and yet they receive salaries. The NG-CDF is being used to educate children, and build classrooms and police stations. It creates employment in our constituencies. I, therefore, want to support the budget team. view

There are more measures we want the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) to institute. We should ensure that all Members of Parliament are treated equally. None should earn more than the other. view
