• 31 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to speak about the Hydrologists Bill. I do not know the number of hydrologists we have in this country. Indeed, we have a lot of problems in this country. The biggest problem in this country is deforestation. Forests have been cleared. The laws of this country are weak because mwananchi can just decide to cut down trees without any permission. Many of our people are clearing the forests. That is why we have these big problems. The water towers are drying up. Every water tower, when you pass ... view
• 31 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: in town you are likely to see street boys tampering with water pipes. They use the water to wash vehicles. So, in this country, we need to put down rules even if we are crying of drought and other things. The rules are not proper. With the rules against deforestation, many of our forests are now down and there is nowhere we can go. We beat people like the Masai, Samburu and people of North Eastern. The Government should come up with a policy of planting trees in those areas. I have been in the military and wherever we were--- ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to speak on this good Motion. I want to congratulate Hon. Lusweti for bringing it. For the first time, he has been quiet in this House, I think he has tried. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: That is shameful because we have been here for four years. We need to respect the House. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we all know that education is key to everyone all over the world. About this Motion by Hon. Lusweti, I want to congratulate him for having brought it. The Government has spent a lot of money on education. I want to congratulate CS Matiang’i. He has done a lot in trying to bring back the glory of this nation in terms of discipline in exams. There was a lot of theft. We want to thank him for that. Again, I want to support the Government of Kenya for stopping new registration of schools because most schools ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, without making many remarks, I just wanted to take three minutes and donate my remaining minutes to Hon. Z.K. Cheruiyot. Three minutes are enough for me. I donate the remaining to him. view
• 19 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to start by telling Hon. Kangogo that he should withdraw his last statement; that he will tell his people to buy guns and protect themselves. That is not the Motion we are contributing on. I want to thank Hon. Omar Mwinyi for having brought this Motion. It is a very fundamental Motion and I support it. This country needs all of us. We need those police officers because they are very important. They are our brothers and sisters. Many of us have contributed by saying that the police are bribed ... view
• 11 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to also speak. Let me start by thanking the Senate, although they have taken long to bring this Bill. Having taken long, we expected no amendments but there are some. This is a very important Bill for small children because it can make them succeed in their future. There are people to blame in this Bill. Like where I come from, it is almost the same as what the Member of Parliament for Vihiga has just said. I can count Early Childhood Development Education buildings in my ... view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me a chance to also talk about this Policy. Many families in this country cannot afford to provide for their children because of poverty. Despite protecting our children, they have their own problems. For example, burning of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: schools happens because of too much protection. This Motion is long overdue. We need to impose strict laws on parents who neglect their children because there are parents who do not care about their children. There are many street children because of indiscipline or poor parenting. We need to enact laws that directly affect parents who neglect their children. For some time children of this country have been neglected by parents. This is the time when laws should be put in place to ensure that we take care of our children in a responsible manner. With those few remarks, I ... view
