Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if this Bill is enacted into law, then, there will be order in our counties in terms of ensuring that this important constitutional mandate given to our 47 county assemblies is executed with objectivity and within a legal framework. With those remarks, I support the Bill.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to support this Bill and congratulate Hon. Jude Njomo, my good friend, for bringing it at this time when the banking sector has a lot of issues. This country has witnessed unprecedented turmoil in the banking sector. I think this Bill could not have come at a better time.

27 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
Finally, I just hope that this time we are going to succeed as a House and a nation in having the Bill enacted into law. I hope the President will listen to the wishes of Kenyans and assent to this Bill. We previously have tried to rein in banks, but we hit roadblocks on the way, either from this House or out there when seeking for the Presidential assent. This time, I want to appeal to the President of the Republic of Kenya, that in exercising his constitutional responsibility of assenting to this Bill, he agrees with this House, so ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to support the Petition and just add that what happened to Quinter is a clear case of recklessness by the police force in terms of handling the very equipment in the name of guns that we buy for them to protect the lives and property of Kenyans. If you were close to the family of this little girl, like me, you will appreciate that this was a very sad case of irresponsibility by the police officer who shot that girl.

First, in investigating this matter, I would ask the Committee to determine what disciplinary measures have been taken against the police officer who recklessly used his gun, so that we can stop future carelessness and harming of other innocent Kenyans. This country has witnessed unprecedented cases of shooting of people by police officers as they purportedly try to stop what they call “riots”, but which are in essence demonstrations. The victims of the shootings are usually little children and innocent students who happened to be going about their own business, like the case of Quinter that happened in a school ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I really do not want to interrupt my friend. I know the frustrations he is going through and so, I do not want to concentrate on him because I understand him even from the way he talks. He is my friend.

5 Jul 2016 in National Assembly:
I stand on a point of order. This is a very important matter and, actually, in the process of transacting business, we have given this Committee as early as tomorrow. Listening to Members, we are basically in agreement that the Committee should be passed. I rise under Standing Order No.95 on closure of debate that the Mover be called upon to reply, so that we can close this debate and vote for it the first thing tomorrow in the morning. That way, we will have these 14 Kenyans embark on this serious exercise of helping us come up with a ...
