• 27 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Kenyans given that the Government wants to realise UHC by the year 2022. Further, it is one of the pillars of the Big Four Agenda. This Report is most welcome. Without taking too much time, I support it. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As you have realised, the land issue in Kenya is very emotive. But I would wish to make a very quick comment especially to the Committee which will be looking at this particular Petition. This just touches on what we call the colonial land ordinances as they existed. I know that if you will be unable to completely solve the case study in question, you should be able to bring to the House knowledge of how those ordinances affected land ownership in Kenya. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I would also wish to ask the Committee to look at the history of how people first owned land and, maybe, look at the works of Arnold Toynbee on the first Occupancy Theory in so far as land ownership is concerned. I think that will help us even if we do not completely tackle that Petition. But the House should be knowledgeable on how the ordinances affected the occupancy of land by the original people in Kenya moving forward. view

• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to make a contribution on the law relating to contract borrowing.

• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: I want to thank Hon. Waititu for bringing such a law which will affect every Kenyan, and is in tandem with what the wishes of Kenyans are. This is because each time a guarantor comes in to stand up for a principal borrower he believes that he is a witness and not the principal. That is why the social mind of the guarantor is very easy. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: We should look at what borrowing itself is. It is the act or receiving something of value in an exchange for an obligation to pay back usually at a greater value at a particular time in future. In my background as a teacher of history, government and economics, borrowing has been in existence for a very long time. So, whereas the guarantor looks at it as a social understanding to guarantee, what is the position of the person giving out the money? The person giving out the money whether a bank… I want our understanding to go beyond banks to ... view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: That is the main reason why the guarantor must be protected. This is because given that the spirit of the person giving out the money – that is the financial institution - is to make profits, for him he will be randy and go for any property without understanding that he should go for the principal borrower first before going to the guarantor. That is because he wants to make profit out of it. He is not honest. He is a profit-maker and capitalist. Therefore, this law has never come at the right time than now when Kenya is facing ... view
• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman for this chance. Whereas this law is supposed to look like the President is defending the public or being the advocate of the civilians, we must remember that the brokerage industry has been in this country for a very long time. It has employed the youth. When they leave schools or colleges, many of them begin and have earned a lot by serving in the brokerage industry. Actually, it is a form of employment. I must conclude by saying that the creation of the brokerage industry in economics - and I know Economists are here - ... view
• 4 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. I want to take this opportunity to wish the Muslims countrywide and more so in my constituency of Emuhaya, and with your indulgence and on your behalf, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Muslims in Luanda, a good Eid Mubarak . They are our people; they have always stood with us when we are enjoying our Christian holidays and we want to wish them well tomorrow. I want to support this Bill, it is a well thought-out and as many other speakers have said, it should have come earlier, possibly at the ... view
