• 17 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: pesa kidogo kwa kisingizio kwamba wanasaidia maskini. Katika nchi hii yetu, tumewaona watu wengi sana wakijitoza kwamba ni watetezi wa maskini lakini mwishowe wanajaribu kuwatapeli wale ambao wanafaa kuwa ni wanyonge zaidi. Tumeona mambo ya IDPs na kadhalika. Hii ni sheria nzuri sana. Naona muda wangu umeyoyoma. Asante. view
• 11 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to very highly support this Petition by my very good friend Hon. (Dr.) Makali Mulu. The braille transcribers are very critical in the education of learners with visual disabilities. I went through a special school – Thika School for the Blind. Those are the persons who were helping the totally blind students and the low vision learners to translate print into braille. They also go ahead and help in the marking of exams by transcribing from braille into print. They do a lot of work. The issue of braille transcribers and other teacher aid ... view
• 11 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: The other issue is the need to ensure that we have what we call “unified braille”. That is because right now, we have Braille 1 and Braille 2. But there is need to ensure that we have a unified braille system for learners with visual disabilities. This will, of course, ensure that there The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 11 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: This is the final one, Hon. Speaker. THAT, aware that there are many talented people amongst the youth in this country; having noted that those talents have been severally displayed through various inventions and innovations by the youth in platforms such as the Science Congress and the Annual Youth Innovation Week; concerned that most of those discoveries do not go beyond making sensational newspaper and electronic media stories; noting that most of those innovations are aimed at addressing the problems that afflict us as Kenyans on a daily basis; further concerned that there is inadequate enabling legislation and administrative measures ... view
• 9 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the observations of the Petitioner because of some of the crimes that he has enumerated. Usually, people who are suspected do not get charged in any way. The conceptualization of the fact is that, if you have done tax evasion, money laundering or if you have been involved in drugs, you should be taken before a special commission.

However, we need to ask ourselves what is not happening with regard to the already established institutions that are there to ensure that such crimes are dealt ... view

The petroleum sector is very important in this country because it is a new frontier for the development of our economy. I believe that people who have been given that responsibility are going to ensure that we reap from that dividend; that this country is going to be developed from those proceeds and that even the communities where this extraction is going to occur are also going to benefit. We would like to see more persons with disabilities being ... view
