  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I would like to speak from the point of view of a former Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) who dealt face to face with the former SRC. I agree with the Chairman in terms of getting more time. You must look at this person, in terms of his attitude, with a toothcomb. What is their frame of mind? What is their thinking about the scope of their work? What is their integrity? What do they think the job is about? view
  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this gives the House an opportunity to really look at what this is all about. We saw that the last Salaries and Remuneration Commission, every engagement we had with them, their mind was that Members of Parliament and politicians across the country and Members of the County Assemblies must be cut to size. So, every time Parliament was on recess, they put a circular and said that those were our salaries and that they had been reduced. This is a matter the House must deal with squarely. view
  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I want to make a point regarding the other representatives sent to the SRC by other bodies, including the Parliamentary Service Commission. In the last SRC, those members said that they no longer represented anybody in the Commission. They said they had come together and had become one Commission speaking in one voice. It must be understood that those people are sent by bodies in the view that they actually understand where they are coming from and the people they represent. If one is sent by the defence forces, it is known that you understand the challenges those people face. ... view
  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I support the Motion and hope the House will find time to vet those members. view
  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I think the respect for territorial integrity has been canvassed.

  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: County which I represent has over 145 fishing beaches. The people along these beaches wake up every morning and wonder whether they are truly Kenyans or they belong to another country because of the mistreatment that they are taken through. They go into the lake, their boats and their fishing gears are confiscated and they are forced to eat raw fish. No Kenyan should go through this level of humiliation when they have a Government to speak about. It is unfortunate that the feeling among our people and ourselves is, we are side-lined. The number of Press conferences and the ... view
  • 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: With those many remarks, I support this Motion. view
  • 28 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I attended one of the Committee’s sessions as a friend. I can see where the Chairman is coming from. The Committee is large. Members want to contribute; and it is two Committees in one. People want to ask questions. Others do not want to feel gagged. Considering the importance of this matter, I would like to go with the position that the Leader of the Majority Party is advancing, that the Committee goes on overdrive gear. They are already on overdrive gear. They have been in all parts of the country and back, but they should ... view
  • 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to comment on the Petition brought by Hon. Theuri and I would like to state that when the Departmental Committee on Sports, Culture and Tourism is looking at this Petition, they must look at the wellbeing of our young people. There has to be a balance between making profits from betting and the lives of our young people who spend their whole time betting in the slots. In fact, I was shocked to see that even in my rural home, across the road in the shopping centre, somebody had actually brought a betting ... view
  • 27 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Oh, Hon. Kathuri Murungi. His name in the village is, even his number plate is written, ‘Kamashinani’. view
