• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker; I rise to support the Motion on the Adoption of the Report of PAC on the Government of Kenya Accounts for the year 2013/2014. However, I am concerned that some of the things that the Chairman of the Committee has read out to Parliament today indicated that, at some point, school managers or school heads have--- view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. It seems like my presentation is being interrupted heavily. The Chairman of the Committee has indicated that some school managers or teachers could possibly have presented wrong figures of enrolments in order to get more Free Day Secondary Education (FDSE) and Free Primary Education (FPE). The Committee, through its Chairman, could make this matter more clear because school enrolment is something that the Ministry of Education has emphasized on. It is something that we are sure of. I am also concerned about the fact that most of the public land in our constituencies has ... view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, it is saying the same thing, only that they have included the word “entities.” I support the amendment. view

• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Bill by Hon. Neto. It is important we streamline the NGO sector in Kenya. This is because we have had NGOs that come up and defraud Wananchi . For example, we had NGOs that came up after the 2007 ethnic violence in my constituency. They defrauded suppliers and members of the public and left. We have also had NGOs in Nairobi who have been defrauding our suppliers. I think streamlining those NGOs is important without also forgetting that there are straight NGOs that have given serious input into the ... view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to thank Hon. Odanga for bringing this Motion. It is important for us to understand a few things. Chaplaincy has been an ongoing issue. The motive of this Motion is to stem out bad behaviour, radicalisation and the recently manifested acts of burning schools.
