• 30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: As I conclude, I want to say that domestic violence, teenage pregnancies and intoxicated youth will be facing us. I would like to see us get solutions and not only be based on lamentations. view
• 30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support. view
• 2 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Motion on the Approval of the Mediated Version of the Early Childhood Education Bill (Senate Bill No.26 of 2018). It is well known that if you want to know the direction of a nation, a people, a community or even a homestead, you need to invest in children. Early childhood education is extremely important because the early years are the foundation upon which each and every child can, not only hone their sense of development, but where we get to see the necessary balance of ... view
• 2 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: whose welfare will also be appropriately considered through their employment and remuneration, we are investing in the right direction. I support this mediated version of the Bill because it is clear that currently, there is an effort by county governments to put up classrooms and structures. Where I come from in Alego-Usonga in Siaya County, I had an opportunity to visit some of those schools, especially during the period when COVID-19 was at its peak. It was clear that, going not only by the number of children that were all put in one room, we need to have proper planning ... view
• 2 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: I support the Bill. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: That is true, but in the interest of supporting the African culture, if the other names appear, we would be happy to work with that. I want to support the amendment of the Land Act, 2012. I also thank the Hon. Member for drawing attention to this important area. I want to recognise that we are operating in a country where land issues are extremely complicated. In many cases, land allocation and management fall into extremely difficult challenges. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: I support the amendment because there is need to look at the way we settle disputes and ensure that public land does not fall into hands of those who want to abuse and shortchange the citizenry and those relying on the Government and those who are in charge to protect them. Hon. Deputy Speaker, as it has been indicated by other Hon. Members, land issues are not only emotive, but in disputes what would arise in the absence of this kind of legal specification, citizens are at the mercy of the courts, title deeds and in many cases, it is ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to support the proposed amendments to the Lands Act, 2012. I am glad because land issues, as they are emotive and contentious, are issues to do with women. Women in this country also suffer disproportionately because of land. The Constitution of Kenya has tried to address the issue of land reforms in this country. Women of this country do not even have rights to own land. Women do not have land which usually, forms part of collateral even when they want to do business or anything. This Bill ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: The Ministry of Lands has not come out clear especially on land that is within the borders and that is why the Maasais of Narok, Mashangwa, Lolgorian and the Kurias of Ntimaru where I come from, are often at loggerheads and war when it comes to issues of land. Before the Committee puts together a report, it is important for them to map out areas where land is contentious like in Kuria East where I come from. Quite often, men in Kuria do not even attend to their normal work. They are always at the borders of Maasai trying to ... view
