• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairman, I just wanted to confirm that really the communication from the Speaker was very clear. As Hon. Millie was walking out, he even reconfirmed that she would be out for the remainder of the sitting. So, Hon. Millie is perfectly here. Actually, she did not sneak in. She has been around even when the substantive Speaker was here. view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I wonder why the Leader of the Majority Party does not want me to consult with Hon. Millie. She is a very resourceful person in my coalition and I need to consult with her. Remember she comes from Homa Bay County and Suba for that matter. view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On my behalf, on behalf of the National Super Alliance Coalition (NASA), and on behalf of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Party, the people of Suba South Constituency and my own family, I want to also join other Kenyans who have sent messages of condolences and sympathies to the family, friends, and relatives of the late Hon. Kenneth Stanley Njindo Matiba. I also want to point out that many of us were young when Matiba went through the tribulations. I remember I was in Form Three when he resigned, but when he fought hard in 1990 ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that as we mourn the late Matiba, we need not politicise it, need not heighten tension and we need not hype emotions because we are sure that the family is grieving at the moment. Those who are close to Matiba are seriously grieved. view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: The Leader of the Majority Party has said that the spirit of the handshake should move us forward. I agree entirely but before we forgive, there is supposed to be truth and justice. The House and the Leader of the Majority Party have an opportunity to have the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission (TJRC) Report that is gathering dust in the shelves debated. I am sure Kenneth Matiba would be at peace today if we address the issue as a matter of truth, justice and reconciliation so that those people who wronged him come before him or before the TJRC ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Before I sit down, I want to mention that I have heard Kenyans saying that as a country we have disappointed Kenneth Matiba. I disagree with them on one aspect. The greatest The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: disappointment that Kenneth Matiba has gone with to the grave is the fact that the democratic space he fought for is limited and that TV stations can still be switched off in this country. I am sure that, that is a very serious disappointment to him. That he died when journalists can be harassed, humiliated and even tortured the way they were at the airport in this age and era, I am sure Matiba must have died a very disappointed person. The fact that he died at a time when court orders are still being disobeyed at will even with ... view
• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: To conclude, there are people who are making the leadership of this country a crisis for us when it is not. It is your personal ambition. Do not make it a crisis for us. It is not a crisis for T.J. to be president of this country. It will never be a crisis. This country will always be led. It can be led by you or it can be led by Mbadi or it can be led by someone else. There are people making leadership of this country a crisis for us. The crisis that we have before us is ... view

• 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to say the following in opposing this amendment. One, I remember when the matter of sub judice was raised and I think it was the Member of Parliament for Mathare who raised it with the Hon. Speaker, you were very clear when I made a contribution to this point that you are referring this matter to the Committee, which was supposed to look at it in details. There were a lot of complex and legal issues around it. I remember you told us to read Article 171 together with Articles 248 and 250 ... view
