• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: I have a card. I am in seat No. 47 but I have a card. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to appreciate the response to my request by the Chair on the sale of illicit brews. However, in keeping with very useful directions that you provided, I was not aware that this Statement was going to be given today. Given the manner in which the Chair had indicated that I had provided very clear pointers and he was going to work on it, I came to the House today hoping that it was going to be responded to. ... view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: So, I would like to seek your direction but also request that I really would have liked an opportunity to make a response or determine whether the response was satisfactory, if I had had a chance to listen. view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to support this Report by the Special Funds Accounts Committee on the Adoption of the Report of the Financial Statements for the Commodities Fund. I belong to this Committee and took part in the interrogation of these Report. As my colleague has just mentioned the issue of sugar in this country is political. We saw this from the mere fact when the Commodities Fund appeared before the Committee and said the whole issue of handover was not done well by the Sugar Development Fund. That is why even after the purported ... view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: As you are aware, I come from Migori County and my people are sugarcane farmers. SONY Sugar Company has suffered under this kind of arrangement. You will realise that in Migori we have struggled to see how to save the farmers. The problem is between the Fund and the people themselves. That is why the Committee saw that the Ksh7.8 billion was serious money that could not be wasted. One of the recommendations the Committee brought on board which I wish to support, is that this board should see how it can write-off these loans. I like the word ‘writing-off’ ... view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, allow me to say that I do support wholeheartedly this Report from the Committee that investigations must be carried out at the Sugar Development Fund to understand how Kshs7.8 billion was not recovered from wherever they had advanced that money. That is the money that is not able now to enable the Commodities Fund to undertake its duty to build the capacity of farmers and undertake so many other responsibilities. view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to support the Report of this inquiry by the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources. Water is an essential item. It is a basic need. It is, therefore, important that when we are talking about water, we talk about water that takes care of over 50 million Kenyans. This country has 50 million Kenyans who actually depend on water. If you look around, you will realise that majority of Kenyans, and especially those in rural areas, do not have access to clean and quality water. I am happy that this ... view
• 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: The recommendation of having an inter-ministerial committee that does feasibility studies to ensure that the community is benefitting from the various water pans and dams that we have is important. Having said that… view
• 28 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before I present my request for statement, allow me to express sincere regret that the last time, on 13th July 2020, I was not able to respond as you sought for me to present the request for Statement. At that time, I had the honour of representing the International Parliamentary Union (IPU) on a Zoom call. I thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity today. Pursuant to Standing Order 44(2) (c), I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare regarding increased view
