• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: His Excellency the President is a man who is very courageous, bold and decisive. He is also a listener. Out of his Speech, we could see him apologising to Kenyans for the atrocities that took place in this nation. That means the President has been listening to the cries of the people and he accepted to apologise on behalf of former presidents. I thank the President for the assurance that he has given us on the economic situation of our country. He said that our country is growing in the right direction, in a robust manner; and that we are ... view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also want to thank the President for what he is doing in the education sector of this nation through Free Primary Education and fee reduction in schools. His Excellency the President has assured us that money has been increased so that school fees in our institutions are reduced. He also stated that there shall be no examination fees for both Standard Eight and Form Four students. This is a good gesture to our nation. Hon. Speaker, poverty is eating into our country and our people are crying. Corruption is here. It is a cancer that ... view

• 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Going through the Bill and the meaning of “domestic relationship”, I want to agree with hon. Members who have said that this deletion should not be done because it does not state in this Bill who the members of the family are. We are talking of relationships that had taken place before. So, if we delete all these, what will happen to those victims who have been affected by the deletion? I oppose. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: On the outset, I want to support the Motion and say that, as members of Public Accounts Committee (PAC) where I also sit; we had a lot of challenges in coming up with these reports. As the Chair of PAC put it, it is historical for the first time in the record of this House to have three consecutive financial years’ reports being tabled in the House. For sure, it has taken us time. We are almost becoming obsolete in our constituencies because most of our time has been used in coming up with these reports. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: I want to say that our brothers and sisters at the county level will soon be laughing because we were struggling as a Committee to meet the constitutional requirements of Articles 202 and 203 on equitable revenue sharing between the national Government and the county The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: governments. For sure, once these reports have been adopted by this House, come the next financial year, the allocation that will go to the counties will be slightly higher than what we have seen in the recent past. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to say that we had several issues that came before us. I am happy that the Office of the Auditor-General is really working round the clock. I want to join my colleagues, especially hon. Sakwa, in helping to boost the department of the Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO) in terms of financing and staffing. That is because as we sit now, that office is auditing not only the national Government, but also the county governments. You can see the enormous task that is lying before them. So, there is need for that office to ... view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: The essence of auditing is to confirm whether or not public funds were applied according to the law and that is a very big responsibility. We, as PAC, rely majorly on the reports that are generated by the Auditor-General. So, that office should be empowered. view
