• 21 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support and urge the Hon. Members who are yet to contribute to support this Motion and annul these Regulations. Thank you. view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice and support this very crucial and important Motion. I thank the Mover, Hon. Godfrey Osotsi for coming up with this Motion which is long overdue. We all know for a fact that sports is very important, not just in development of a human being but also to enhance cohesion within the competitors. view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: We are much aware that most of our youth are jobless. These youth come to our offices, nagging and pleading with us to get them jobs and yet some of them have talents but have The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: nowhere to have their talents mentored and exploited to earn a living. Sports is popular. Apart from the participants, we also have fans; people who cheer and watch sport. In the process they are busy and do not engage in activities which are not productive such as alcoholism. view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: We have to appreciate that we do not live in isolation. Other countries are ensuring that they are growing their sports and talents. We also need to join those nations so that we can also grow our talents and in the process have Kenya recognised worldwide like what our athletes have been doing. We can grow other sports such as football, volleyball and all types of sports by enhancing and ensuring that in every part of our country, we have well established sports academies. view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: With that I support. view
• 20 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice. At the outset, I do support the proposed Bill, more so about the Stamp Duty Act to waive stamp duty on the first home owners. We all know that every Kenyan wants to own a home. It is timely, though a drop in the ocean because we know how expensive properties are in Kenya. But a waiver of 4 per cent or 2 per cent, as the case may be, is timely. My only issue is that we are talking about first-time home owners ... view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to contribute to this matter of national importance about sugar.

But what I have noticed and everyone will attest to this is that we are politicising this issue too much. The end result is that we are going to lose the war on corruption and contrabands. Instead of focusing on exactly what we have started, we have started diversionary tactics to move away from the National Youth ... view
• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Let us not go towards talking about people who are supporting a certain person. Some of those who are being named are people who, simply because they support a certain person, are The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 19 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: pushed into this sugar story. One is mentioned as being involved in the sugar menace. Somebody like me has never, in my whole life, sold even a grain of sugar. But even when national television stations and fake media speak, they say a brother of Hon. Wangui Ngirici or Ngirici is importing sugar. I have never sold even one single kilogramme of sugar in my life. What has happened? There are people who are really pushing it towards other people and trying to make sure so-and-so is implicated because he supports so-and-so. The other thing that I want to ask ... view
