• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The chairman of the finance committee is either ignorant of the law or he is concealing facts from the House. One of the oldest pieces of statute in Kenya is the Limitation of Actions Act. That is what you intend to amendment under the Finance Bill? It should come under the Statute Laws (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill or separately. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: What this amendment truly means, and which the chairman has deliberately refused to disclose, is that the six years that the law limits any person to follow another by court proceedings or any other legal proceeding should be extended to give KRA 20 years to chase anybody. That is a whole lifetime. If this amendment goes through, then it will mean that one cannot plan their life. If for 20 years you live in uncertainty of being chased by KRA, you cannot plan your life. This amendment is one of the worst I have ever seen in this House. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I thank Hon. Keter for giving me this chance and, indeed, this Motion is timely.

• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Kenya to have rugby centres in all our constituencies. When I see rugby leaders here, I know that this matter is serious. We have had discussions with them and I know this is necessary. As I stand here, 42 years I ago, I played rugby, but now I am the proud father of one of the best talented coaches of Kenya, Curtis Olago, who is a friend of the guys who are here and who has been coaching the Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) Club for the last six years and excels every year. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: So, even in my family, rugby is close to our hearts. I support Hon. Keter’s Motion that we should have these centres in every constituency. In fact, last week, my son had to go for high performance training in Cape Town because we do not have any around here. He came back in the country three weeks ago and his friends here know that. This Motion is timely. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, very much. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I see my colleagues in the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, Hon. Murugara, Hon. Wambugu and Hon. Jennifer Shamalla in the Chamber. This matter came before the Committee yesterday. We approved the Report and signed it. The Chairman has not yet tabled the Report. He was here in the morning and I did not get the chance to talk to him. I request that we put this aside so that I can contact the Chairman of our Committee to establish whether or not he has tabled the Report. view
• 8 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Manje has missed the point. Hon. Mboko is asking for an integrated system in our primary schools and secondary schools. What Hon. Manje is talking about is exclusive. That is what we are trying to get rid of. We say that these children are abled differently but living with disabilities. The Motion is asking for the children to be integrated with others but not put in an exclusive situation. That is what is in the Act. view
• 2 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. It pains me that we have spent the last 30 minutes debating a non-issue. I say that with all respect to my friend, Hon. Ouda, who represents part of the constituency I used to represent in the 10th Parliament. I have the privilege of sitting in the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. I want to assure the House and the Speaker that we have such volume of work that we have no time to waste. I know any member of the public can present a petition to the House, but I also know that ... view
• 2 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: body language, clearly you are not satisfied that this petition merits the threshold. Why did you bring it to us? view
