• 18 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: The last part that I wish to talk about is Clause 11, which talks about campaigning for or against the referendum. There is a contradiction in some parts of this clause where it is stating that the committees which will be formed for or against the referendum should fund themselves. This is an election process. Every election in this country is funded by the State. Parties are funded by the State. I wonder why a referendum, which is a very fundamental part of the change of the Constitution of this country, cannot be funded; especially the campaigning part of it. ... view
• 18 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: campaign against the referendum, because it is the State which should be leading the “Yes”, are also funded by the State. view

• 18 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The framers of the Constitution devolved library services to the counties. At some point, we normally look at this as a very unfortunate situation. The functions that are devolved are those that are needed majorly by the people in the counties. view

• 18 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: The functions of libraries almost work hand in hand with the functions of the national Government, especially the education sector. Libraries were meant to fall under the Ministry of Education. This would have helped us to ensure libraries work properly. Despite this, I wish to join my colleagues in stating that we must align this with the Constitution, so that this function can be shared between the counties and the national Government. view

• 18 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: I support this Bill because it seeks to distinguish the management of the existing libraries. It is giving the existing libraries and those that will be formed a management team to look into their needs. Remember we have national libraries in the counties and cities. The problem in the counties is that most libraries are not properly equipped, funded and managed. I hope the Kenya National Library Service Board will ensure that existing libraries are properly managed and funded, so that our learners visit those places and find materials they want. view
