11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As we support this Bill at the Third Reading, we also want to mention that although it was something supporting women issues, it is not so much. We also have to be honest with ourselves. We just hope that the parties will do justice at the time required otherwise, the parties can find a way of going around. I am speaking as one of the leaders of one of the most serious parties that we have in this country. Hon. Jaldesa has surprised me because I really thought this was more important and that they would ...

I do not know when it will stop and they are the same things. I think now we have listened to you. We have heard you and now we want to support women. I do not think you should present any more views to the BBI because it is clouding and making us get confused. I see in every BBI function, women are presenting the same views. Now we understand it is opposite. You want the opposite. I think now you can leave it there. You now do not want more than two thirds. Now they want 50/50 and we ...

11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning rises to speak, he needs to clarify to us if the Cabinet Secretary of the National Treasury was involved in this. I listened and I largely agree with Hon (Dr.) Makali Mulu and Hon. (Dr.) Wilberforce Oundo that tax administration has been facing a challenge because of these exemptions. But at the same time, we have to be careful because the moment you subject glass to taxation, if you do not take care of issues around pharmaceutical packaging of drugs using glass, definitely it will have cost effects ...

11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
I am a bit very unhappy with this amendment. Always, levies of this nature are levied to help spur economic growth and development. That is why we have the Fuel Levy Fund. That is why we came up with this Railway Development Levy. When we are going to spend this money in running and expending recurrent expenditure, it is a reflection of a failure on our part as a country. This SGR business should have been well thought out before it was executed. If it is not able to sustain itself, then as a country we must own up. The ...

10 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. On my behalf and that of my family, my constituents, the leadership of the minority side and more particularly, the ODM Party on whose ticket Hon. Dori represented the people of Msambweni for close to seven years if not more, I register our deepest condolences and sorrow for the demise of Hon. Suleiman Dori. We got news of Mr. Dori’s death very early in the morning at around 6 a.m. In fact, it is my party leader who called to tell me that we had lost our Member, Hon. Dori. I The electronic version ...

10 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
immediately reached out to you. As a party, it is a great loss to us. I register our sympathies with the people of Msambweni who have lost their committed leader. The Leader of the Majority Party and a good number of Members managed to attend his funeral. Given the time it took between Dori’s death and his burial, it was amazing to see a large number of MPs from across the country who made sure that they were there and struggled to reach there. That showed and demonstrated that Dori was a friend of many. There was a period of ...
