• 5 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Motion that this Report be adopted. Indeed, the recent tragedy we had on the MV Harambee Ferry really opened our eyes to the inadequacies and really lack of maintenance on the ferry services. I am deeply concerned because when you go to the Ferries Act which is actually one of the oldest Acts in this country, a 1936 Act, it is a solid Act, and Chapter 410 of it puts into place regulations, controls and conducts of persons using the ferries. The ferry rules were actually dated 1951 and ... view

• 21 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very timely Bill. I commend this Committee for the work that has gone into this Bill. I went through the reports. I have seen the Report and it is really extensive. You have done a lot of public participation and really captured what the people of Kenya want. It is a tragedy going on in this industry at the moment. I grew up in a world where gambling was almost akin to prostitution. They were almost the same type of sin. My mother would not even let us play ... view

• 21 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: is Ms. Stella. She was very strict. We could not understand it. We were not even allowed to play with cards. I do not know how to play a card game. When the people outside there see the title of the Bill, the Gaming Bill, they may think that we are endorsing gambling. We are not. This House and Committee are saying that it must be regulated. There were days when we were not allowed to play with cards and enter casinos. Civil servants were prohibited from entering casinos. I know the reason. It becomes a place where you can ... view

• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Indeed, I want to confirm that it is not only I as an MP, but there are hundreds of Kenyans who have been categorised and there is nothing wrong with being conservative. The rebels have decided that being a rebel is positive and great and conservative is dirty. Anyone who has been categorised in that group and attempted to register for that conference has not been able to do so. I, personally, being one of them. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: MPs who are currently not in the House like Hon. Chris Wamalwa have been attending meetings with the Catholic Justice and Peace Commission (CJPC) here in Parliament. It is a fact that the inter-religious councils out there have taken great issue with this Conference; which has been televised recently on live debate. It is being couched in a very politically-correct language as inclusiveness which we understand to mean the inclusiveness of lesbians and gays. Let us make it very clear that in this country, nobody is bashing them. They have equal rights like ours. I do not understand why they ... view
