• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: If he stopped interfering, we would be fine. view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to support this Motion which is on the Appointment of Members to the Committee on Members’ Services and Facilities. view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: I have the following to say about this Committee: I hope this Committee will not make us lose hope this time round in the performance of this Committee. Some of the things we call privileges are not even privileges because we pay for the food that Hon. Junet was talking about. This is something that needs to go out. When we say that we queue for food, Kenyans may think that it is provided for free. It is not provided for free. By the way, it is one of the costly foods in this country. The price is like that ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: We want to ask you to not only be in this Committee by name but also offer services to us. You cannot tell me that the Parliament where legislators of a country stay cannot even have toilet paper. At one point, you go to the washroom and there is no toilet paper. In fact, you have to be very careful at the Continental House. First of all, you have to check whether the taps are running because you may mess yourself up. I do not want to go into the details but I am saying that before you take any ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: you come to some civilisation like some of us, then you really need that water after passing through some activity. view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Having said that, I do not doubt the competence of any of these Members. Let us not make joke of this Committee. By the way, maybe one of the reasons why this Committee did not perform previously is that we have been making joke of it like the Catering Committee. I am not referring to Hon. Junet. I can see he is looking at me like he is the one who made the joke. The point is that this Committee is the one that is responsible for our welfare in terms of services. In fact, we were discussing with Hon. ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Our gym is in pathetic state. I do not use the gym here. I go elsewhere and I pay for it, which is very costly. We have a gym here which is paid for by taxpayers’ money, and yet it does not offer the same services. For me to have the speed to run the way I ran when I went to see my friend Hon. T. J. Kajwang’, you really need a serious gym, but not the one that we have here. Otherwise, you will break your leg like the way many of my colleagues have broken their legs. ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Finally, I even have a problem right from here. I do not know where this idea of carrying a card came from. I saw yesterday that you were not very kind to those of us who misplaced their cards. I cannot remember exactly when I was forced to carry something continuously every day. It must have been in primary or high school because even carrying a ruler or a geometrical set was very difficult. Carrying this card everyday and remembering when I am leaving to put it in my pocket and when I am leaving home, I have to carry ... view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support the Motion. view
• 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I am just rising to confirm that, indeed, during our deliberations at the HBC we realised that the Private Members Motions were not ready for processing this morning. There are quite a number of these Motions coming up from next week as the Leader of the Majority Party has said. So, we just want the House to indulge us and allow this Procedural Motion so that we discuss other matters not falling in the category of business not sponsored by the Majority or Minority Party or business sponsored by a Committee. The electronic version of ... view
