30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition regarding licensing of firearm holders. This country has no proper regulations in terms of handling firearms. You do not even know whether the people who are being given firearm licences have been trained. We need basic training on the use of firearms. It should not be a matter of someone getting firearms but we do not know who trained them. What if people were trained by thugs and then they were handed firearm licences? Who qualifies to legally possess a firearm? Nowadays someone becomes a Member of County Assembly ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to ask Question No.141 of 2021 on the Order Paper, pursuant to Standing Order No.42A (5). This Question goes to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure, Housing, Urban Development and Public Works. (i) Is the Cabinet Secretary aware that a number of contractors awarded various contracts across the country to improve roads to bitumen standards have stopped works due to non-payment, and in particularly, the contractor who was awarded the Mbita – Sindo – Magunga – Agolomuok Road, in Homa Bay County where the construction has stalled due to failure by the Ministry to ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First of all, issues to do with boundaries are very emotive. They should be treated with a lot of care and soberness. I am sure you did not hear the Member of Parliament (MP) for Nyatike but as he was finishing his request for a Statement, he claimed that I am a beneficiary of the land of Nyatike people. First, I want to say categorically that there is no conflict around Otati area. The MP for Nyatike comes from about 20 to 25 kilometres away from Otati.

Hon. Speaker, my home is three kilometres to Otati. So, he cannot claim that he knows what is happening at Otati more than I do. There is no conflict between the people of Karungu and Gwassi. The people of Gwassi who reside in Homa Bay County and the people of Karungu who reside in Nyatike Constituency live harmoniously. We intermarry and do all our things together.

30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly:
There is a cattle market in Otati which is right inside my constituency. Nobody can take it away. That land belongs to Gwassi people. There is nothing to investigate. The Committee has enough work to do, but not to look into issues of ego. We have been in this Parliament with the former Member of Parliament, Hon. Eddie Anyanga. We did not have any problem. The current Member for Nyatike Constituency, whose mother comes from my constituency, does not respect my constituents and his okewa .

30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly:
I realise now that your relatives should not lead in a neighbouring constituency because there is no respect. There is nothing to investigate about this matter. I urge the Committee to disregard this request. There is no dispute between Nyatike and Suba people. We live harmoniously. That is why his mother is married in Nyatike Constituency because we are friends. He is now claiming that there is a problem between Suba People and Karungu people. What problem do we have? That is where I buy chicken and mboga to eat. That is where I buy everything. That is the closest ...

30 Mar 2021 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, the Leader of the Majority Party has spoken to this matter at length. We are just being cautious. The order of our business today is not too heavy. So, we are just being cautious that in the event that the time would have lapsed before the conclusion of the same, we extend a bit. However, I am very confident that we are likely to finish within the time. If we look at what is coming up, most of it is Questions to be put and First Readings. There is only one serious Motion which we will consider.
