• 10 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Indeed, I was glad when you referred that Petition to the Budget and Appropriations Committee. We have a long list of Ex-Army officers who are having such claims as alluded to by Hon. Nyamita. All these cases end up being in court; from the Court Martial to the High Court. The High Court cleared and awarded damage charges. If you inquire from the Government and especially, the Ministry of Defence and the Attorney-General’s Office, there is a pending appeal. The Government had appealed before the judgement was made. There are many such cases, actually, a colossal ... view
• 10 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Yes. Hon. Nyamita, who is my good friend, knows very well that this is a very serious Committee. We just came back the day before yesterday since 13th May. We resumed on 8th June 2021. We have not failed to bring it on time. However, I will go by your directive which is to bring the response next week on Thursday. I was not “thinking”. I am being told by my good friend here, the Member for Kiambu that I am not allowed to think. I am certain that the end game for all these Petitions on Ex-Army Officers is ... view
• 13 May 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Petition from my good neighbour, the Member for Kibwezi East. Kajiado South in particular borders all the national parks mentioned in the Petition and there has been very good co- existence between this side of Kajiado and Makueni counties. We are separated by these national parks and I really support the prayers in the Petition. However, we need also to understand that wildlife is a national resource and we earn a lot as a country for our Gross Domestic Product through tourism. On one side we have the agriculturalists and on ... view
• 13 May 2021 in National Assembly: needs to fence all of them using solar or electric fences to avoid destruction of property as said by Hon. Members. view
• 13 May 2021 in National Assembly: In as much as they fence the parks, they also need to leave pathways so that pastoralists can access pasture and watering points. Also, there is a very good coexistence between the people of Kibwezi and Kajiado including access to markets like Kamboo. So, they do not need to fence everywhere so people from both sides can have access to either side. The people of Kibwezi can come to Loitokitok and those of Loitokitok can go to Kamboo market. I think this needs to be taken into consideration. view
• 13 May 2021 in National Assembly: Finally, when KWS is recruiting wildlife rangers they should pay particular attention to the communities that live with the wildlife in Makueni, Kajiado and other parts of the country. They should give them priority and recruit their sons and daughters to manage the wild animals so that communities will see the benefits and agree to live with the wild animals. Since it is a Petition, I do not want to say much. I support it. view
• 13 May 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, since you approved that request for Statement, we have no option other than to try to direct it to the relevant authorities and bring the report. We all know that this evening the House is adjourning in accordance to the House Calendar. So, once it resumes, give us two weeks we see whether we can get a satisfactory reply. view
• 11 May 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.44 (2) (c), I seek to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing regarding heavy traffic flow in Kitengela Town on the Nairobi-Namanga Road . Hon. Speaker, it is notable that the Nairobi Expressway linking James Gichuru Road, the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and Mombasa Road, which is scheduled to be completed by 2022 is nearing completion. While appreciating that several bypasses, detours and link roads have been constructed within Nairobi to facilitate a smooth flow of traffic, including dualling of Mombasa Road to ... view
• 6 May 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for allowing me to participate in this historic moment. This is a very important time in our country in the history of constitution-making. It is a very important time in our being Members of this august House. I want to deal with only three issues because of the limited time that I have. I have had the advantage of listening keenly to the Members who have spoken before us. I have come to the conclusion that this august House has a very interesting composition. This is where Kenya is. It is the face of Kenya ... view
• 6 May 2021 in National Assembly: for Kandara speak about the Judiciary. My people are worried about the resources that will go to our county. When I am told that the Constitution of Kenya will guarantee Kajiado County a share of 35 per cent of the sharable revenue, who in this Chamber can tell me to say “No” to the BBI Bill? I am told that the Constitution will give a tax relief to our young people who will be starting businesses. There is unemployment facing our people. That is enough to make me support the BBI. There is the Maslow’s theory of hierarchy of needs. ... view
