• 25 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 24 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to speak to the President’s Speech. I want to start by saying that the President was fulfilling the constitutional requirement that he gives a State of the Nation Address every third month of the year. view
• 24 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: I think it is important to put it on record that President Uhuru Kenyatta is the first President of the Republic of Kenya who is mandated to do so under the new Constitution. Therefore, we must commend him for the way he has continued to implement the articles of our Constitution. Of course, he has quite some responsibilities even going forward. The speech addressed many issues including corruption which has been spoken to by virtually every Member who has spoken before me. view
• 24 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: I do not think there is much to add to it other than to say that we must all of us fight corruption and be committed to this war as it does not matter what your political affiliations are. But, perhaps maybe the fight against corruption would be better if at the formation of this Parliament we had more political parties than the two major political blocks. When they all merge and become one then we do not have an alternative voice. It is very dangerous to be in a situation where we do not have an alternative voice. The ... view
• 28 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I remember I had a petition that I introduced in this Parliament during the last Session on the issue of hardship allowance. I thought Hon. Sossion would have been vibrant to help me out but I realised that there are some interests that surround the issue of payment of hardship allowances.

• 28 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: areas that if it is taken away, you lose votes, if it is paid elsewhere…Those kinds of things. This House has some form of interest that we need to deal with. view
• 28 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: We occupy a privileged position. One of the things that the Constitution is trying to stop us from doing is using our privileged position to confer on ourselves financial gain or even institutions that we represent to confer on them some financial gain. I think I am not wrong to say that Hon. Sossion is still the Secretary General of KNUT. He must be earning a salary. view
• 28 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: If he is earning a salary and the matters that are being discussed have something to do with the benefits that may accrue to KNUT, it could easily qualify to be pecuniary interest. Two, if he is seated in a committee and the subject that is before the Committee is KNUT, he has to be a witness. I do not think there are two things. He will have to just be a witness; he cannot be a committee member when his organisation is under scrutiny. He is really a witness. If he sat as a committee member, he could easily ... view
• 26 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: ​(Ndaragwa, JP): Hon. Speaker, I second. view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to speak to this Bill, which deals with a very important matter; that is allocation of revenue. First of all, I want to thank the Committee for the work it has done and especially the clarity with which it has presented its reports. It is important to note that whenever we talk about allocation of money in the two levels of government, Members of this House always seem to have a lot of interest. I wonder the reason for that interest. We need to do some bit of civic ... view
