• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I know we are talking about heroes at Zero Hour. We have a number of heroes apart from Eliud Kipchoge, whom we are proud of today. We have a number of them who have performed for this country and have made Kenya what it is today such that when you travel overseas and mention Kenya, even before they know the continent you come from, they automatically know Kenya. It is important when we recognise and honour our heroes. There are many categories we can look at. The people who are good in keeping peace ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: I am also aware that we have some sportsmen and women who have gone an extra mile and decided to run for other countries or do activities for other countries probably because they are not satisfied with how we handle them in Kenya. When we say that Kenya took position two, I disagree with that though there are facts. The people who run in countries like the USA, for example, a number of them are Kenyans. They are called by our community names. You wonder what might have happened. I believe they did not get adequate rewards while they were ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: As we talk about this, we have our people in the security sector. We have lost a lot of our young people providing security in this country and outside this country. Recently, there were some who perished after hitting an improvised explosive device (IED) on the road. That is just the recent one. We know of many of them. Let me mention the Garissa University incident where a police officer sacrificed his life to save the lives students. He evacuated about 200 students at that university even with terrorists hovering around. It is surprising to note that even to date ... view
• 15 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: We have lost police officers in the line of duty. Thank you. I would have liked to talk more. You should have given us 10 minutes each. This is a very important Motion. view

• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Matters corruption are issues we talk about day in, day out and year in, year out. By bringing any legislation or regulations on corruption, I do not think we are doing anything different from what our laws have on corruption. The only thing that must be done is culture and attitude change. Unless we change the way we do things and the way we think about how to approach issues, corruption is here to stay with us. It is unfortunate that corruption affects our education standards, health of people and the economy of the country. It is unfortunate that the ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: I looked at the proposal of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs on setting up of an international academy on corruption and wondered who the teacher would be. I do not know who is pure to be in the institution to give the right morals to society. view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: On economic crimes, I would like to bring up the issue of the Nakumatt Supermarket, which collapsed a few years ago. I do not know how many employees and suppliers suffered after the collapse of that entity. What has this country done about it? If we are talking about economic crimes, I believe something happened that affected the economy of the thousands of people who were working in that supermarket. Up to date, we do not know the fate of Kenyans The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can ... view
• 9 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: who were working in Nakumatt Supermarket. We do not know whether they were paid or not or whether they are still suffering. view
