• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is there not a better way of celebrating what our athletes have achieved other than refusing to answer Questions that relate to the improvement of the young people in this country? view
• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is an increase of road accidents in this country. Incidences of school children being knocked down by vehicles on our highways are on the increase. We also have an increased infrastructural development in the country. What is the Ministry doing to sensitize or re-sensitize the drivers on the need to ensure that we are more careful as we continue using better highways given the fact that most of the times, we only hear of crack downs? The authorities only authorize for crack downs. Is the Ministry doing anything to get the drivers in this country ... view
• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to second this Motion. I am fully aware that we have come before this House before to seek for another extension. As the Mover has mentioned, this issue is very crucial to this country and has continued to occupy a better part of our politics and even the Executive agenda for the last couple of years. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the 2007/2008 disturbances that resulted in many Kenyans being displaced only served as an opportunity for the country to address the entire issue of IDPs across the country. During the process, this ... view
• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Protection and Assistance of Internally Displaced Persons Bill 2011 is the one I am holding. I would ask to be allowed to table it, so that even the Legal Office within Parliament can also look at it and input into it. I wish to table it. view

• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I want to oppose that amendment for all the reasons that hon. Musyimi has given, but nothing to do with what hon. Mbarire said. We need to ensure that we are legislating for the whole country. The fact that many of us in this House have degrees does not mean that we lock out every other person out there who has quality. We have debaters and legislators who have been here without any degree who have made immense contribution to the legislative agenda of this country! view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, in essence, we have achieved what we wanted. The suggestion by hon. Mungatana has a basis, but even as we consider those fears, it is important that we end up with a legislation that allows economic growth in this country. By and large, the overriding factor should be that we do not stifle economic growth. Why is it that we are having these county governments? It is to ensure that there is economic growth and development in all the sectors of this country. For that to happen, we must generate revenue. So, if we have ... view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, there is one more point that I want to make. This was somehow captured by the earlier speakers. We have the second economic and transport corridor that is going to run from Lamu all the way to Juba. Any legislation that we put in place that seems to stifle that kind of a project must be resisted at this level. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the proposed amendments seems to run against the first provision. view
