• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I just want to say one thing. I congratulate this Committee for doing a commendable job. I think this is the first time that the PAC is bringing a report in such a short period of time. This Report is covering quite a number of agencies, namely, the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC), Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA), Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), National Lands Commission (NLC), the National Assembly (NA) and the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC). I am happy that they have done this. Most of the time, the accounts of these agencies are ... view
• 14 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I thank PAC and ask them to continue in that spirit and ensure that this time we update our accounts to the current financial year to be able to divide revenue effectively and efficiently. Thank you. view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. We have adopted it as a routine that in every new Parliament, we have a post-election seminar to interact with professional experts from other jurisdictions who will meet, have sessions and discuss with us how Parliament functions in other areas. I want to emphasise to the Members that it is important to understand - even if you think you understand - especially those who are coming in for the first time, that we have a new system of Government. This is a presidential system and, therefore, it is important that we attend this important seminar to ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: need to go to Mombasa to rest. If at all, if it was a matter of resting, I would be very reluctant to support it. I want to ask the Hon. Members that when we get to Mombasa, let us get down to serious business. Let us use the three days well because it is being funded through the taxpayers’ money. Let us exploit those three days and learn something so that when we come back, whatever we shall have learnt and the interactions we will have with the experts from Australia, Canada, USA and other jurisdictions would be of ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: 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
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I want to, first of all, start by congratulating Hon. Sossion for bringing this Motion. Now, I actually understand why, in our Constitution, we decided to include that we need representation from various sectors of this economy. We needed someone to represent workers and I think we did not make a mistake to bring Hon. Sossion to this House. I want to speak to those busybodies who are trying to interfere with the representatives of workers by trying to make the nomination of Hon. ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: not, that they should understand that those who can understand problems of workers are actually people who are still in that category of professionals.When some of us leave their profession to come to Parliament, we forget about the other professionals in our fields. If you are still with them, it is easy to appreciate them. That is why Hon. Sossion has remembered that these teachers are suffering and attention is needed not only about teachers but also about education of these regions. view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I want to first start by saying that these terrorists have wreaked havoc in Wajir, Mandera, Garissa and other areas of this country, including Baragoi, Baringo area and sections of Lamu. These are also parts of Kenya. We cannot ignore and forget that these regions require teachers. Even as we complain about the deaths, these areas need teachers. The reason why this matter has become so important is because lives were lost. If it was any other suffering, we could close our ears and eyes and say that so long as you are in Kenya, like what Waswahili say vumilia, ... view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I support the position that Hon. Sossion has brought to this House this afternoon. One, let these teachers whose lives are under threat be deployed elsewhere, and recruit from these regions people who understand the local dynamics and environment. They may survive more easily than people who come from other places. view
• 13 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I want to also speak on one issue before I sit down, if you allow me just one minute. We have enough security forces in this country. We have a lot of police officers in this country who are not deployed productively. People who shot that young man, the Secretary General of Meru University, should be taken to North Eastern to deal with criminals. view
