• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. We do not want to create enmity between this House and the Senate.

We would like to have an environment where we can be passing laws without being opposed outside. If we pass this here now, somebody will go to court to oppose it. Let us follow the right channel. Let us talk to the Senate and it will do its ... view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The composition of the Board is biased. We have been talking about the youth and they are the beneficiaries of this Authority. The youth, who are the affected group, are not represented on the Board. This Bill has lost its meaning. It was meant for the youth. Now, if the youth are not represented on this Board, who will speak on their behalf? view
• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill but I want us to take into consideration what Hon Eng.

• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: masonries. They now earn some money every day in the villages. After we produce the technologists and technicians we do not want them to compete with the engineers. We want them to be self-reliant. They need to create job opportunities for themselves and for their survival. view
• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: We now have devolution and 47 counties in this country which need that kind of knowledge. We have very few engineers in this country, who are recognised and trained very well. We need to encourage them to train more technologists and technicians to go to the county level for employment. There are many job opportunities in the counties available for the technologists and technicians. For us to grow our counties, we need to have these people available to do smaller jobs where a lot of engineering knowledge is not needed. view

• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: who is faithfully paying his tax, I would like to encourage you that once we have this Bill we will actually curb corruption in this country. As the Mover of the Motion said, the level of corruption here has destroyed our nation. Kenya, except South Africa, is the only country which does its budget which is financed locally. That gives us strength as a country. We want to encourage the citizens of this country to pay their taxes so that we can depend on our money than relying on outside help.
