• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. Actually, this proposal is not destroying brokerage firms. In fact, there is a provision in law that makes sure that they are paid their commissions. In the event an underwriter does not pay them the commission, there is a penalty for that. So, the President has looked at all those provisions in law and what he has recommended is for the good of the people of Kenya. view

• 20 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as the Leader of the Majority Party has just said, Hon. Osoro needs to withdraw and apologise. view
• 20 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Secondly, I want to ask him to round-up all those Members who are saying that they are denied a chance to contribute in this House, so that they can be taken for an induction course to be told how to be allowed to speak. For you to be allowed to speak, you must show some commitment. Some of these young Members are destroying the image of this Parliament. When he condemns the Hon. Speaker, he condemns you too and the entire panel. We cannot allow that. If it were not that he is my grandson, I would have asked that ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Actually, my advice is on the provisions of the Constitution of Kenya, which states that we must respect our culture. In all African cultures, men do not discuss about nickers… What do you call those things? They do not discuss them. So, we should have left sanitary towels alone. Men do not discuss them. Actually, you might be condemned. So, I advise my menfolk not to discuss sanitary towels, nickers and those other things that belong to women. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. We must be very careful how we allocate our resources. Areas which have missed development should be given more funds than areas which are already developed. If we want to build in Nyandarua, then let us also build in Kiambu and in Kisii. But a place like Tharaka Nithi needs it. So, I support the amendment. view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Budget Estimates approved by the Budget and Appropriations Committee. There are some issues which have not been addressed. For example, there were roads in my county which were budgeted for in the 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 budgets but they were not allocated any funds in the 2018/2019 Budget. I hope the Committee will demand that those roads are reinstated and reallocated funds. That is one aspect we must check when approving those budgets whether there are some projects which have been done away with without actually being done. I have a ... view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: we not improve these facilities first before we declare universal healthcare all over the country? It does not make sense as far as I am concerned. On Monday, I went to Kisii Hospital to see a patient. That patient was in a coma but shared a bed with two other patients. He died finally and that shocked the other two colleagues whom he was lying with in the same bed. Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital which is Level 6 should be a national hospital which should be allocated adequate resources. We should adequately provide resources to Kenyatta National Hospital, Moi ... view
• 12 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Finally, there is the issue of manufacturing. Before we provide the Budget, we must demand to be told the manufacturing plans that will be done in Kisii, Nyamira, Bomet and Nyeri so that we know that we are developing the entire country. Otherwise, we will put up those factories in one county and they will not help others. view
