• 3 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this chance. I will be a little limited because after the Mover moved this Motion, we got more explanation from Hon. Duale. I thank both Hon. Wangwe and Hon. Duale, especially Hon. Duale, for his clear explanation on what Waqf is and how it works within Islamic law. What I have understood about Waqf is that it is an endowment made by a Muslim to a religious, educational or charitable course. That is good because this will go a long way to help, improve, assist and excite and incite more people to donate ... view
• 3 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: in that funeral. I believe that in Vihiga, Emuhaya and other places in Kenya, we require this law so that such donations are made and it is also provided how they are administered. What is the surety that after such donations are made, they will go for the purposes the donor intended? That is without other persons coming in to own and use them not in the intended way. In the spirit of the law, the commission will serve the entire country. It will not only be good for Muslims, but will also benefit Christians. If these donations were to ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I pick the tone of Hon. Gikaria. I happen to have been a sportsperson. In 1988, I was in the Kenyan national team that went to South Korea. This Petition is good. I agree with a number of things in it including the Paralympics that deal with people who are of that kind of nature. However, when it comes to the bit of schools, it will be very difficult maybe to the Committee that will be looking at this. Sports in schools are managed by the Kenya Secondary Schools Sports Association and the Ministry of Education. ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to make very few comments so that other speakers may also comment on the County Governments (Amendment) Bill. I went through it yesterday and what “catched” my eye first is what I will go to. This is in Clause 3 where it is dealing with the qualifications for one to be the chairman of the county public service board. The Bill comes out very clearly to talk about the first requirement to be chairman. view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Okay, I may have just missed something. I am a teacher and I may have missed something because of the mask. This is sometimes interfered with by the mask. If it were off, you would get it very clear. I am a teacher and I have been doing this. view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This amendment says that qualification number one must be a degree holder. I thought this is good for a general chairman to be at a level of degree holder. The only comment I had is that these are the same teams of people who are also doubting whether a degree is important for the Members of Parliament or even members of the county assemblies. What I registered more keenly is the fact that the next requirement is that this person must have a background in human resource management and be registered in the institution ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: When the Constitution was being made, I happened to be the Chairman of the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) union. That time, we were dealing with the young The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Nyachae, who was the Chairman in charge of that process. The young Nyachae asked us about something which he was so clear about; the commission and the TSC. At that particular time, we were so psyched that everybody in the commission must just be a teacher. I am telling you, Nyachae asked us three times and we insisted everybody must be a teacher. Later on, we realised that he was right and we were wrong. We need a lawyer, a human resource person, and people who qualify in other places. Today, we are doing exactly that to improve the operations ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Finally, they insist that the Chairman must have a working experience of 10 years. Then I said, “hey, with the high number of youth, people who have left university, some have worked for five years, others for three, this is not right”. Recently, in my own county, I saw a young girl who missed a position in the public service board simply because she was 35 years. I said that this is missing simply because of experience. So, I think the amendment alluded to by Hon. Duale, that we reduce this age from 10 years to five or seven years, ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: The other part has been talked about and is very dear to Hon. Baya. I will not be very sentimental about it, except for the issue of the secretary to the county service board, just in case everything else about him is okay in terms of considering the Constitution, gender and every marginalised group. However, the issue of professionalism will still be very important. that we have professionals within the county because the county governments are thoroughly affected by the quality of people who are working with them. This was very serious during the first level when the first governors ... view
