• 10 May 2022 in National Assembly: I want to single out the case of General Mahmoud. In the military circles, he is understood as a man who changed the course of history in this country on that fateful day of 1st August 1982. However, beyond the military recognition that he got, very little is said outside here in the civilians’ circles. I believe that in the Committee of the whole House, I shall formulate an amendment that will identify heroes who go beyond the call of duty and serve beyond what is required of them in service, so that they can celebrated when we put up ... view
• 10 May 2022 in National Assembly: In totality, this is a magnificent Bill which I support. Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 10 May 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to bring to the attention of the House that the Committee is still considering this Bill. I believe that if it is given consideration for a later time, it would be good. view
• 10 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much. view
• 5 Apr 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I would like to commend the Petition that has been brought by Mr. Gaya. When the Committee is considering this Petition, they should consider two matters. The first one is an issue to do with over-investment in the centre. Sixty years after Independence, we should not be talking about some areas being hardship areas. Secondly, the Committee should also make recommendations on which State agency should take up this matter because the zoning of hardship areas should not just be limited to far- flung areas. There is something called urban poverty. Hardship areas in ... view
• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This afternoon, there were two main reasons why we came to the House. There were two critical businesses that were on the Order Paper, and one of them is this Bill. We are going to do fundamental changes to an election law that is going to affect the country and Members of this Assembly. I am told that the Speaker is blind. Looking around the House, I want to call your attention to the quorum in the House. You can count the people in the House with one hand. It will be sacrilegious to ... view
• 10 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to seek your direction on whether Hon. Rono is actually in order to steer away from the matter that is on the Floor as we speak. I think the Chair should find him out of order on the basis that what he is saying is irrelevant. view
• 10 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, even as I fault him on relevance, I have to agree with him that you look extremely beautiful today. However, I disagree with Hon. Millie Mabona in her claim that all men are colour-blind. I am a visual and performing artist and I want to confirm that green is one of the colours spotted by the UDA party officially. I want to add that you even look more beautiful seated next The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 10 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: to the National Flag because green has its meaning on the Flag of Kenya. As an artist, I know what that green means. We are seeing that party has been found within our borders… view
• 10 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do stand to support the Committee’s Report that we annul these Regulations in their entirety. It is not the hobby of Parliament to be annulling Regulations. This House does not enjoy taking work back to Committees, which then take them back to the relevant Ministries. However, these Regulations had been crafted in such a way that they have been faulted by the Committee on Delegated Legislation. The Report actually points to a danger in the Ministry that shows the level of laziness. From the Committee’s Report, these are actually careless mistakes ... view
