• 2 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank the Mover for bringing this important Bill. This is a very important issue that affects us across the country. It is important that it is brought to the attention of the Government. I hope that this Bill will not take a lot of time on the Floor of the Senate. When we have an opportunity to make amendments, we will so that across the country those who retire do not suffer or be reduced to beggars. The reason is some of the officers at the National Treasury start asking for bribes. It ... view

• 1 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. For eight years, the President, under the Jubilee Government, has managed to do what others did not managed to do in over 123 years. It was a great opportunity for us to listen to him. Some of us who listened to others were getting a little concerned. This is because all we were hearing is that nothing has been done. Without a doubt, the President did not cover everything, perhaps, due to lack of enough time. For the record, one of the astonishing things I want to mention is ... view
• 1 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: office, it is always fair we devote our time to improving the lives of the people who voted for us. When we spend all our time doing campaigns before the time is right, we waste people’s time. We are also dishonest in our ways. You cannot spend all the time campaign when you are supposed to be offering leadership. That is, essence, wasting people’s time. Again, we have had a very difficult scenario in this country, just like everywhere else in the world, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Under the management of the President, we were able to come out ... view
• 9 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to appreciate the point raised by Hon. Duale, but even as you consider that request, it is important that we still maintain some social distance. It is one of the most important things that we can do so that everyone is comfortable as they transact business, not just within the House, but even outside. view
• 9 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I beg to move that The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (Amendment) Bill, National Assembly Bill No. 1 of 2020, be read a Second Time. The main objective of the Bill is to amend the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) Act No.14 of 2011 in order to merge the KNCHR and the National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) in order to retain the Kenya National Human Rights and Equality Commission (KNHREC) as established under Article 59(1) of the Constitution. Article 59(1) of the Constitution establishes the KNHREC, while Article 59(4) gives Parliament the ... view
• 9 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: rights, and receiving and investigating complaints about alleged abuse of human rights. The Act, however, excludes from the functions of KNHRC the duty to receive and investigate complains about alleged abuses of human rights relating to the valuation of the principle of equality and freedom from discrimination. I hope Members will note that distinction. Let me repeat that, that excludes from the functions of the KNHRC the duty to receive and investigate complaints about alleged abuses of human rights relating to violation of the principle of equality and freedom from discrimination, which are vested with the NGEC. The Act also ... view
