  • 14 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: solicit for money. Our constituents are the ones who constantly solicit for money from us. We constantly contribute to Harambees . Truth be told, sometimes you find that there are too many Harambees . Some people just decide to conduct a Harambee today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. This is where we must come in to provide in the law mechanisms for planning Harambee in a manner that does not expose hon. Members to too much pressure that may force them to seek other ways of raising money to keep on contributing to Harambee, or push them to a ... view

  • 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am just considering the matters of aid and when you talk about official aid, it is already official enough. When you talk about approval by the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury, you create room for individuals who might want to frustrate such projects to come in and frustrate official aid-fund projects. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, we are not new to this issue of push and pull between the civil society and the Government. You might find that some particular aid agency has been marked and is in the red. Once that aid agency brings in ... view
  • 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am distraught at the move by the Chair of my Committee; the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare.
