21 Feb 2019 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Governor of Central Bank may have been keen to fight money laundering, but he has hurt 90 per cent of Kenyans who are innocent against the 10 per cent who are guilty. This House passed two Acts, namely, the Financial Reporting Centre Act and the Anti-Terrorism Act. These are provisions that could contain suspicious transactions. The Governor is now intimidating bank staff. If you go to the bank now, the staff do not want to deal with you because they may be arrested. We did not flag this out. If the Governor knew what he ...

it to Parliament for committee to pass it? Why make it look like a memorandum which has force of law behind it? As Parliament, let us consider whatever the Governor did as a legislation which is subsidiary and let us leave it to the Committee on Delegated Legislation to handle it, so that we can save the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

21 Feb 2019 in National Assembly:
Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. As I support this Motion, I commend the Leader of the Majority Party for this innovative application of Standing Order No.114. This is going to remove what was stopping Bills from moving as quickly as they should. If passed, this Motion is also going to assist in enhancing the productivity of this House and the general performance. As I was looking at the Motion, I thought about the number of committees which are not able to process Bills not because they have more than they need to handle, but because of laxity of their ...

21 Feb 2019 in National Assembly:
I have the privilege of serving in the Procedure and Rules Committee of the House. As I look at the Motion, I am getting other ideas on how we can re-look at our Standing Orders and see how best we can innovatively make the House move faster without sacrificing quality. This Motion will clearly help the House in moving fast. There have been complaints lately from some Members of this House, particularly the young and new Members, that their Bills are not processed as fast as they should. This will help in easing that pressure from the young Members of ...

20 Feb 2019 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The TSC has the constitutional mandate to hire and deploy teachers in the country. I support delocalisation the way Hon. Atandi does. However, TSC in implementing this policy has been doing so in a punitive manner that dehumanises teachers. In Kisumu West, there is an instance where both husband and wife are headteachers. One has been transferred to Kuria West in Migori County and the other to Alego Usonga in Siaya County and they have got small school- going children. So, I agree with Members who say that in transferring teachers, the TSC should look ...
