• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise in support of this Motion. We must do something about garbage collection in this country. The Motion focuses on the management of our garbage in terms of collection and in terms of disposal. view
• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the Motion. It seeks to strengthen industrial levy in terms of expanding the scope and making it more effective. In my constituency, Gatanga there are many entrepreneurial ventures that the youth are involved in such as car wash, garages and so on. I always ask myself how I can increase the capacity of the youth and empower them so that I make them more effective. I desire that they develop to the level of getting financial resources from the banks. How can I make them more competitive? This Motion offers one of the solutions ... view
• 4 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise in support of this Motion. Although it looks fairly technical, since you are raising issues of trade, when you talk about globalization, the central focus on globalization is trade. When you control the world in terms of trade, you control economic power, hence political power. So, I urge the House to go beyond this Motion because the issues that are raised in this Motion impact very heavily on the economic growth and development of Kenya and East Africa. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you interrogate issues of World Trade Organization ... view
• 16 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I had to relocate from that side, so that I could “steal” the Chair’s eye. I am Humphrey Kimani Njuguna; the Member for Gatanga. I rise in support of this Motion because, in principle, this Motion supports devolution. If you look at Chapter 11 of our Constitution, which is basically the chapter on devolution; particularly, Articles 174 and 175, you will see that it talks of the rights of the local communities to manage their own affairs and further their development. Further, the Articles talk about the rights for equitable sharing of local and national ... view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, Sir. I made my maiden speech yesterday. I had introduced myself. My names are Humphrey Kimani Njuguna, for those who were not in this House yesterday. I am the Member for Gatanga and I welcome you to that constituency, so that you can see whether it is a model constituency or not. view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: I support the Motion I was contributing to on access to emergency healthcare. I would like to say that the Motion is anchored in Article 43(1)(a) of the Constitution. Article 43(1)(a) states that access to health is a constitutional right to every Kenyan. In fact, Article 43(1)(a) says that every Kenyan has a right to health, to the highest attainable standard. So, it is not negotiable. This is a right. I know some people might want to say that since we passed our Constitution in 2010, then this right should be applied progressively. However, I am of the contrary opinion ... view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I want to move on to Article 43(2), which deals with emergency access to health. I had an opportunity to interrogate hon. Nyikal on what view
• 24 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir, for noticing me. I have been here all time. I will, however, be brief. I am the Member for Gatanga and I must thank the people of Gatanga for voting me in against all the odds. There was the TNA wave and also the tunaweza make wave, but I still managed with NARC although in Jubilee Coalition. I thank them most sincerely. At Independence, we had noted that the three challenges of our society were disease, ignorance and shelter. However, today we are still discussing diseases. I am a medical practitioner and I would like ... view
