• 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. As I rise to reply, I want to thank all the Members who have contributed to this very critical Bill. To the governors, especially during this transition, they need to know that these are public funds, and they should be used properly. We need to remind governors all the time about debt and pending bills. Despite the fact that there may be a change of regime, if they have an obligation to pay, they must do so on time. Also, the National Treasury should ensure that they release funds on time and not wait for ... view

Basically, it is a minus and plus. We are moving from the Department of Trade to the one of Industry. It was a question of misplacement when we were doing the Committee of the whole House. view

• 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you so much, Hon. Speaker. Thank you for saving me because there were rigging claims by the Chairman emeritus, Hon. Kimani Ichungwa. Hon. Kimani Ichungwa, kindly, be nice because there is no way you can remove my card. view
• 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: I want to start by thanking the voters in Kieni for giving me an opportunity to serve them as their Member of Parliament for two terms. For the interest of other Members, and just to insist on how special it is; in my three neighbouring counties of Kirinyaga, Nyeri and Laikipia, I am the only Member of Parliament who was re-elected in 2017. To me, the reason is very dear and I really appreciate. It is basically because of the work that we are doing and I have no doubt that I will get season three because of the work ... view
• 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: To Kenyans, the rate of turnover is alarming. The Members who are deselected in all positions in Kenya are at 70 per cent. Hon. Speaker, that has a toll on development because there is no continuity. The rate of turnover in the developed world is about two to five per cent but in Kenya it is at 70 per cent. We need to embark on some research and understand why there is this high turnover rate. I am sure Kenyans have by now learnt that re-electing their Members of Parliament, governors and Senators has more value. Hon. Speaker, I wish ... view
• 9 Jun 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The Vice-Chair has clearly articulated the issues I wanted to comment on. When you say ‘shall’ and ‘only’, it is limiting. It means that these commissioners and the Commissioner-General will only be eligible to serve for one term. If they want to seek renewal, it is not provided for. So, I beg to oppose. view
