  • 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. Article 153 of the Constitution is very clear on the decisions, responsibility and accountability of the Cabinet Secretaries.

  • 30 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this debate. This Bill has drawn a lot of public attention. The form in which it was brought to the House at the very beginning looked completely unacceptable. I have gone through the Report of the Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade.

I also thank the Ministry of Devolution and Planning for coming up with this Fund. view
  • 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: We co-exist in this House. That is the county Members of Parliament and the constituency Members of Parliament. I respect my brothers and sisters who represent constituencies, the same way I am sure my brothers and sisters who represent single constituencies also represent us as women who represent counties. I think that is the co-existence that we need. That is also the togetherness that we need. That is why we welcome the fact that we will work together to bring up our women and youth in our constituencies. I welcome the partnership between the County Member of Parliament and the ... view
  • 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Capital Markets (Amendment) Bill of 2013.
