• 30 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me congratulate Hon. Osotsi for bringing up this Information Communication Technology Practitioners Bill, which in essence is trying to regulate, put in focus and standardise that particular sector. This sector is a time bomb and a revolution in itself; it is actually a whole world. Away from the earlier revolutions that we had and which have changed the world, whether you want to think of the old Agrarian Revolution that began in Britain or go to the Industrial Revolution, the ICT revolution is the greatest and momentous that is going to change the ... view
• 30 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Regulating this sector will be very important, especially, to the education sector. This is because ICT is currently playing a major role in the education sector, especially with the CBC. You often hear parents talk about having phones that are digital, and so on. Therefore, it is important that we regulate this sector so that we know the type of information that is reaching the learners. Be it as it may, and with the COVID-19 experience which we saw and which we are still grappling with, it is a sure bet that education soon or later, as the late Prof. ... view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I was just consulting with the sponsor of the Bill. I had also had a lot of discussions with him before the Bill came to the House. I support the Bill. The issue of checks should not be a hindrance to young people who want to get employed. Even before you decide whether you are taking somebody on board, you are profiling him either as a criminal or as someone who is unable to do one or two things. The young people do not have the finances required to process most of the requirements that ... view
• 10 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: As we discuss this, we must look at where we are headed to. Given the curriculum in schools and colleges, the types of jobs will not necessarily be formal as it was in 1963, when we got Independence. Education continuously ceases being the car that will give one a white collar job. Employment will be diverse, given the Competency Based Curriculum (CBC). Somebody will train to become a gardener, while another person will get his employment away from formal employment. The sponsor of this Bill, Hon. Gideon, could also listen to this. We must not structure it to cover all ... view
• 9 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Speaker for giving me this chance. I thank Hon. Duale for what he has moved on the issue of COVID-19 and for opening up. view
• 9 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, when you will be considering them, you should also put in mind the fact that we were here before the recess and rarely did we have a full House even though the COVID- 19 rules were in place. That means that even the protocols you had put in place in the National Assembly have been overtaken by events such that, at no given time before we went on recess was the House full. When making the decision, Hon. Speaker, have in mind that the tents that were pitched out there to provide extra sitting space are no longer ... view

• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance. As this matter is looked at, I would wish to say that there used to be stores where slaves were put before being shipped abroad during the old Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. These stores were called barracoons. Today, we have a group of people called agents. These are simply barracoons. What happens is that when these young Kenyans are sent to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, they are actually completely sold at a price. So if they have to come back, the agreement that they make The electronic version of the ... view
• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: between the agents and the people who take these children is breached. So, I wish that, as a Committee, we look at the types of agreements that are done between the agents and the people in Saudi Arabia, who are basically slave traders. view
