• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I am not challenging, but I want clarity. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Parliamentary Service Bill. I also want to start by saying that it is an observation that this Act has been in existence since 2000. It was enacted pursuant to the old Constitution under Article 45. Now, we are operating under the new Constitution and yet for eight years we have been unable enact legislation that would actualise the provisions of that Article. We continue to operate as if the new Constitution does not exist. We have passed all the legislation anchoring all the other commissions that were required to ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: and a duty to provide facilities and services to Members of Parliament so that Parliament can function. I do to think there is any apology. This Bill has touched on a number of issues. It talks about setting up the Parliamentary Service. It sets out the Parliamentary Service Commission, the membership, the values - what we need to follow as those who are governed by this law. There is the code of conduct as the Leader of the Majority Party has said. I had noted it but I do not want to dwell on it because that would be repetition. ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. There is a Bomet corner. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: The Bomet corner is led by the woman representative. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: No. They are not going to walk out on me. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, before I was interrupted, I was saying if, in the JSC, you are representing the Court of Appeal, there is no way you can act contrary to the needs of the Court of Appeal Members. They would remove you. In our case, if you are representing Jubilee in the Commission, it does not make sense that you fight the same Jubilee. By the way, we have our freedom. If you want to fight Jubilee, you simply relinquish the position that you were given by Jubilee and ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: There is something that I need to talk about. I have been here for a while now. When I look around, the person who has been here longer than me is probably Hon. Cecily Mbarire. I do not see Hon. Angwenyi. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I know there have been a lot of negative reports about anything that Members of Parliament try to do which is touching on Parliament. It is usually scandalised. As our women colleagues said yesterday, dehumanised –you look as if you are not a human being. I do not fear constant criticism but criticism should not be taken out of context. When I read some of the things that I read in the media, it baffles me. When you talk of Members of Parliament trying to create a medical cover that will ensure that inpatient is Kshs10 million for every Member, ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I am not saying that Kenyans should shoulder more burden, I am saying if you are criticising or critiquing what Parliament is doing, employ some level of objectivity. There is this thing about diplomatic passport. My background does not allow me to understand many things. Actually, I am yet to understand the major benefits of this diplomatic passport. I am being educated. I was listening to Hon. Duale. I do not own one. I am being told if you have it, you will be policed by National Intelligence Service (NIS). I do not want to be policed, I want to ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Finally on that point, we continue to allocate a lot of resources to counties and the amount of money that is lost in these counties in one financial year… One single county loses on average not less than half a billion shillings. There are reports that we have seen where someone could get over Kshs2 billion out of this country. Where are our investigative organs? Where is the security? How can you get out of this country with Kshs2 billion as a single individual in a period of less than five years? It means that there is laxity in our ... view
