• 29 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, yes, I am a Member of the Labour and Social Welfare Committee. We were sitting earlier today, but at the moment, we are not sitting. I can see quite a number of the Committee Members in the House present. The Chair may be held up somewhere. I think the Vice-Chair may have travelled, I am not too sure. You had given guidance that in the absence of the Chair and the Vice-Chair, the Leader of Majority Party will take responsibility. So, that is why I was not proceeding to say how long this is going to take. You ... view

• 3 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for looking at my request with favour. I rise to move an amendment to the Adjournment Motion and this amendment is as follows: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move:- THAT, the Motion for Adjournment be amended by deleting the words “April 15, 2014” appearing immediately after the words “adjourns until Tuesday” and inserting the following words “April 22” in place thereof. Hon. Deputy Speaker, you do realise that if we adjourn to come back on April 15th we will be adjourning for ten days, and then we will come back immediately before the Easter ... view
• 3 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, therefore, it will only make sense to be away until the 22nd and then come back to work on the Division of Revenue Bill and other important business pending before this House. Hon. Deputy Speaker, as I do not want to belabour this amendment, I just want to say that what is also important for the members of the public to know is when they will see us.

• 1 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for this opportunity to speak on this Speech. You know, even the President must have realized that this Speech fell below par.

When you speak about the values as enshrined under Article 10 of the Constitution, we have already spoken about the appointments that have been made. This Speech really got me thinking. I am not a mathematician, but I got down to do some arithmetic and I literally counted and made divisions. What the Leader of Minority ... view
• 1 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Where is the intelligence? What are they doing? Even out of their own conscience, some of these people who sit within our security ranks should resign so that they give way to a fresh lot that can give hope to Kenyans. This is what I thought I would have heard the President talking about. That he will do anything it takes to give Kenyans their right to security as enshrined in Article 29 of the Constitution. Hon. Deputy Speaker, you saw it on television and somebody said that the problem with our President is that he gives suggestions. It is ... view
• 1 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: workers and even the President admitted that about Kshs.150 million per month goes to ghost workers; people who are not known where they are or what they do. The Legislature; the Parliamentary Service Commission only consumes 1 per cent of the national expenditure, that is Kshs.19 billion out of Kshs.1.6 trillion. Even if Parliament disappeared, the problem of the expenditure in this country will not be resolved. With regard to food security, the President said that we want to do a million acres, but we have started with 10,000 acres. Ten thousand acres times five years or four years is ... view
