• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill, which seeks to ensure that all parts of the Constitution are properly operationalised. The Bill provides for the operationalisation of Article 234 of the Constitution, which talks about principles and framework for uniform norms and a way of looking into the salaries of public servants. We should harmonise the terms of employment in the national Government and the county governments because the academic qualifications, and other qualification, for jobs at both levels are uniform. Some people in the county governments earn more than those ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Clause 44 of the Bill caters for employment of casuals. Teachers who have not been employed by the TSC can be referred to as casuals. This clause also talks about the Commission making regulations and allocating money to pay those casuals so that we do not exploit their services. Teachers employed by PTAs will be covered under this clause. This clause also caters for students on attachment. Most of our students who are through with college and university education always seek for attachments but they are not paid. I also went on attachment when I was pursuing my undergraduate degree ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Lastly, I wish to also look at Clause 42. It talks about the secondment of public officers. The Chair can remember the introduction of the counties. I have heard most of the public servants being seconded by the national Government, but the regulations on how these people are normally seconded have not been put in place. I remember there was an assistant chief in my constituency who was seconded to the counties to work as an administrator. You can imagine an assistant chief who is supposed to be performing different duties other than those of the administrator in the county ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Therefore, I support this Bill because that regulation will ensure that this issue has been sorted out. I wish to just end there. I can see the mood of the House is that we end. I will end by saying I support. view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: What are we discussing? view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the Chair of the Committee on this one because in most of the cases, we have been having this problem of contempt of court, sub judice and all those matters. The new clause will make it clear so that whatever matter that is going on in this House can be handled properly without any problem and what goes on in court can also be handled without any interference. view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wish to thank the Member who introduced this Bill. One day, all of us will become heroes and heroines. It depends on what you will be a hero for. Some of us will be war heroes, others will be political heroes and others will be very unpopular depending on what they do to this country while they are still alive. I would like to support, especially the question of honouring those who have done good to this nation, to humanity and the whole world. Honouring and remembering all those who did good things ... view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Uhuru Kenyatta reading the list of heroes; that is, those who have played a major role in this country. He intentionally omitted some of the great heroes who also did good to this country. We should have a clause in this Bill that will also penalise the President and all those who come up with his speech to ensure that--- When we remember our heroes, for example, if I will be remembered very many years later for what I have been doing, it should be regardless of whether or not I supported the Government. It should be based basically on ... view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: . I remember what happened to the great architect of the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF). Immediately upon implementation of the CDF, he was thrown out of Parliament. So, he could not even benefit from his great idea. This one is based on how we think. He is a hero. Although he is now a Senator, we know very well that the CDF does not work in the Senate. This is the best place that gentleman should have been for him to be remembered. Honouring those who did good is an obligation and it is not something to play with. It ... view
• 29 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: nation. I know that act set a precedent for the status of our current President. Otherwise, if Jomo Kenyatta had not become President, I do not think Uhuru Kenyatta would have been remembered for anything. Those are the heroes we need to remember. I wish to support this Senate Bill because it will entrench in law the fact that during national occasions we have to honour our heroes. If there are medals to be given to people, then it should be based--- Two or three months ago, I watched some members being awarded. Sometimes you wonder how the assessment to ... view
