• 18 Sep 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the Communication on the fact that we have had to have this Special Sitting of the House. Hon. Speaker, the matter that we shall be looking at, especially the matter which one Hon. Member raised, is the issue of the tax. Because that is a matter that concerns Kenyans, I beg your indulgence that, when it comes to voting on the particular matter, because it is raising a question of integrity, independence and strength of this House, you allow the voting to be done publicly so that Kenyans can know who is for them and ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is in the same spirit already mentioned by Hon. Junet that we would really want to know at what time the Bill is coming back. It has been in the Order Paper for the last two consecutive weeks. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am sorry, but you know we are going back to KANU. Anyway, that is not what I wanted to say. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to thank you for the Communication that you have given. It, at least, brings orderliness to the House. While you were away, we remained unsure of the two issues. One, the issue of corruption, which you have talked about and have correctly guided the House on, which is with regards to what should be done so that we can bring the issue to a complete rest. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: The second issue you have talked about, and which you have provided guidance on, is the issue of sugar. In your Communication, you have also given guidance. However, the great wisdom which you have brought should also be brought to bear, so that despite the fact that the House has its orders and rules, and it is a House of rules, those rules should not gag the House from dealing with any issues that affect the public. The sugar issue remains a big issue that Kenyans and farmers will be expecting this House to deal with. So, in your wisdom, ... view

• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am also looking at that particular law which shows the five qualifications for appointment of the Chairperson. It talks about knowledge and at least 10 years’ experience in matters relating to different fields. The Act goes on to list them. It does not indicate that you start acquiring this experience after getting a degree. There are people who are in school and acquiring a degree even today. Some of them are old and are in this House. If we reduce this experience to the time after you get the degree, we may have lost it ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I have been following Hon. Njomo very keenly. He has stood for the people in socialism at one time. He is a great guy. However, his oscillation from one side to the other side of capitalism by gagging other people to invest into the banking sector shows inconsistency. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I withdraw. I am guided, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Thank you. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I want to say that the collapse of banks has nothing to do with the capital base. We have seen even big banks go under. That should not be used as an excuse to gag other players in the banking sector. Since independence, banking was monopolistic and later on an oligopolistic market for a long time. If we or the parliamentarians preceding us were making such laws, the likes of Equity Bank, which has helped the poor in this country, would have not come up. view
