• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also wish to contribute to the issue of budget-making. I wish to state from the outset that budget-making is a preserve of this House. It is very absurd at times when we fall to the whims of the Executive who plan for us. It is the Members of this House, who are supposed to look at the Budget, follow it strictly and dictate on how to make it, especially through public participation. If we look at the areas which those people visited, they are also biased. The Committee Members only visited the areas ... view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: We wish to have this particular money to assist us. Among the stalled Government projects, the Emurua Dikirr Level 4 Hospital is among them and I wish to see it being included. Lastly, I wish to talk about how those monies are allocated. Sometimes we are biased in allocation. Most of the Members have been complaining about the NYS. If we remove money from the NYS, we will not change anything. We need to remove the corrupt people from the NYS who are mismanaging the money that we put into it. I wish that we pass legislation in this House ... view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for adding me one minute. I was talking about the NIS. We all know the functions of the NIS. The functions of the NIS cannot supersede the functions of the Kenya Police Service. Why do we allocate Kshs630 million to the Kenya Police Service while we allocate Kshs32 billion to the NIS which has never tabled any report in this House? They have never given us any assessment. They tell us that they look at the intelligence, look around the country for terrorists and the political temperatures in the country. That is nonsense. We ... view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to discuss and expound the issues which in his Speech, the President made to this House. I must first congratulate the President for the bold move he made especially the Speech he gave to the nation. It was a Speech full of reconciliations and reconciliatory terms, full of humility and had a serious balance between what is going on now and what has been going on previously. Being the first Speech to this House on his assumption to office that was a Speech that I thought was worth congratulating, ... view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: paths and we would also wish them to forgive us. I do not know whether the President was saying this because it is his last term, but I believe he said it in good faith and he would want everybody else to follow suit. I also want to congratulate Mheshimiwa Raila Amolo Odinga. I have always been his fan and supporter in many occasions. He did the right thing by shaking hands with the President, and former presidents Daniel Moi and Mwai Kibaki. The handshake continues. I am also expecting to have a handshake with him and those friends who ... view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 3 May 2018 in National Assembly: I am ordered. view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I just want to be the only sympathetic person in this House to support this great Kenyan who has gone to the lengths of making a decision for so many other Kenyans who think along that line, among them is me. We are in Africa where people want to rule forever if given an opportunity. Some people may want to be leaders forever. If in Opposition, they want to be leaders of Opposition forever, if they become presidents, they want to be presidents forever and others want to be in politics forever. I think if we can imagine ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: When you look at the history of Presidents who have been above 70 years, they have been almost senile and the people running the country are not the Presidents sitting. Look at the American President now, the country is reckless because the guy is old and making reckless statements. Without prejudice, even when our former President was in his late years, other people were running this country. It is the same case with President Moi. When he was in those ages, other people were running this country and that is why this country became corrupt at that period and we ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I was thinking that even in this House, we should reach a stage where we should have a limit. Either we limit the number or terms Members of Parliament are elected or we limit the age. There are Kenyans who are bright, sharp and would want to serve this country but because we occupy those positions, either through manipulation or corruption, we cannot allow them. There are upcoming Kenyans who want to presidents of this country and we strangle them. I want to associate this idea with what is happening now where dynasties would want to rule then another dynasty ... view
