• 27 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Natural Resources the following Question: (a) Is the Cabinet Secretary aware that the construction of the fertiliser factory in Suneka Sewage Treatment Plant in Bonchari Constituency has stalled? (b) Is the Cabinet Secretary further aware that the untreated waste is being drained into River Riana, also in Bonchari Constituency, thus affecting the ecosystem? (c) Could the Cabinet Secretary undertake to ensure that there is proper treatment of the sewage affluence, toxic chemicals and foul smell that is causing harm to the ecosystem? view
• 6 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, my Question is directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development. What is the construction status of Suneka airstrip in Kisii County? view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Motion by Hon. Kositany. I have cases of schools within my constituency which are existing on land that is hardly the size of this National Assembly. I think this House occupies land that is about one-quarter of an acre. They exist on that land because they were started without following the laid down Ministry of Education’s regulations as stipulated in the Education Act, Chapter 211. That is where the rain started beating us. When we tried to acquire more land for such schools, the owners of land surrounding the schools were ... view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: the laws that we formulate ourselves. I will give you an example of the Musila Bill about retirees that came through this House. In the Bill, it was recommended that nobody will retire and move out of his or her working station without clearance in terms of pension and gratuity. That has not been effected to date. People are moving out of their work stations without their money. Some of them have died while others are now beggars because they cannot buy drugs when they are sick. That is exactly what may happen when we pass this Motion. The laws ... view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I agree with the hon. Member who suggested that instead of building classrooms all over the place within a small piece of land, we should think of building upwards. We should focus on vertical rather than lateral expansion. That will lead to some savings being made in terms of land. As we formulate laws, we should strictly look at the densely populated areas like Kisii where I come from. If anybody says, for example, that a primary school should exist on a five-acre piece of land, then no primary school will exist in Kisii. Most schools – primary and secondary ... view
• 17 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government the following: What is the policy in place regarding compensation of village elders who offer support services to administrators, especially in dispute resolution in villages across the country? view
• 2 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: (Bonchari, PDP) asked the Cabinet Secretary for Treasury and National Planning: (a) to explain what the Pension Management Information System (PMIS) entails and how it has facilitated the processing of pension and gratuity with focus on access by the retirees and their dependants; (b) why the National Treasury has delayed in operationalising the contributory scheme, and the cost implications on the pension payments; 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
• 2 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: (c) to explain the status of pension payment to retired civil servants (Police Service, Teachers Service Commission, military and mainstream Public Service) for the past five financial years (FY 2012/13 to 2017/18); (d) to explain the steps taken to mitigate the challenges faced by the pensioners and dependents in accessing information as well as the processing of payment by the Pensions Department of the National Treasury; and, (e) plans that are there to sensitise the pensioners and dependents on the public service pension policy and whether there are plans to develop a uniform national pension policy to guide pension management ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Motion as brought by Hon. Museo. When you look at the system of education in the country at the moment, that is where guidance and counselling should begin because everybody in Kenya must go through primary and secondary school and a few will go through colleges and universities. The issue of guidance and counselling is ignored simply because it is not examinable. There is this necessary evil called examination-oriented education in Kenya today. If you go a secondary school where guidance and counselling is done and you get into ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: who are supposed to be guided or counselled would know that they are sick because everybody usually says that he or she is fine. I say I am fine and do not need any guidance and counselling. Everybody else might be saying that. Apart from the people who are roaming the streets because they are sick, how shall we determine that so-and-so needs guidance and counselling? Maybe, we need to look into that more closely. There was a case I came across in my constituency at the beginning of the year. I was called because people wanted to lynch a ... view
