• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: had been having two sets of exams, one for the current year and another for the following year and they could be leaked easily and bought at will. His academic credentials, professional training and experience comply with Section 6(7) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, No.33 of 2011. In fact, the nominee had confidence of his colleagues at the University of Nairobi who elected him as the dean of the faculty before he was elevated to become a principal then later after just about one year, he was promoted to the position of Deputy Vice Chancellor, Administration and Finance. ... view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: The MP for Suna East is excited. The nominee has not been charged in a court of law in the last three years.

• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: agitating my colleagues, Hon. Sossion who heads the Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) and the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers, (KUPPET) chair, Hon. Omboko Milemba. I have to be careful because they are my friends. I know how dealing with them can be a challenge. We asked the nominee how he will handle the situation. He gave us assurance that he does a lot of background consultation before he takes action on matters of serious concern to the country. view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: There are people who are questioning his interpersonal skills, but we must also be aware that reading all the way to become a professor makes you appreciate certain things that may make you appear arrogant when you are not. I have heard many people call others arrogant, and when you look at it critically, you realise that these people just know too much beyond what other people know, and then you think it is arrogance. We urged the nominee that when he gets this appointment, it will require a lot of interpersonal skills in dealing with not only the teachers, ... view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: I can hear one Hon. Member asking how that can help. You must also be exposed. You cannot be one person who moves from Migori to Nairobi for 20 years and think that you know too much. You must have some knowledge of what happens elsewhere. Someone asked, although informally about his age. He was born in 1952. My calculation brings it to about 67 years. Sometimes, just like wine, people mature with age in terms of leadership. By the way some Ministries like that of education where you are going to deal with children, teachers and different categories of ... view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: In conclusion, I just want to urge Members to read the comprehensive Report of the Committee on Appointments in order to fully appreciate and enrich the debate. I further urge the Members to adopt the recommendations of the Committee as contained in the Report. But this Report was unanimously adopted and approved by all Members of the Committee present, even those absent sent word that they support. I have not heard of any Member against the Report. These are the findings of the Committee. So, I move and ask the Deputy Leader of Majority Party for obvious reasons, to second. ... view

• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am being asked to donate some minutes and yet I do not have that luxury. If it was the normal way, I would have donated but the Standing Orders block me from doing that. view
• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: I want to thank all the Members who have contributed to the Debate. Apart from one Member, I think all the other Members agreed to approve this nominee. I just want to quickly to say two things because I do not want us to lose the numbers. I want to agree with Hon. Otiende Amollo that what he has talked about under Article 130 is that the composition of the National Executive shall reflect the regional and ethnic diversity of the people of Kenya. We were debating in the committee that we should now define what a region is, if ... view
