• 9 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also did not intend to contribute to this. view
• 8 Feb 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I know what he wanted to do. I am grateful because he wanted to call on something like Standing Order No. 95. But, I am sorry I have had that chance to contribute because of this great lady, Ms. Wangui Muchiri. She is a lady we have seen on our screens. She is a lady who is qualified. During the interview, we saw that this lady scored a whopping 85 per cent while the second person had only 72 per cent. It is also kudos to the women of Kenya and our young daughters ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. On the onset, I want to support the Bill, but disagree with Hon. Osotsi in a few areas. The first area is that an engineer is called an engineer after the first degree. One becomes an engineer at an undergraduate degree. All those other degrees like a master’s degree are enhancement degrees for management. You can do a master’s degree in accounting and in finance to enhance management skills. You can do a master’s degree in strategic management. When you become a DG, you also want that engineering aspect plus institution management concepts. So, ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: I do not think I want to be informed. I got him very clearly. That is why I am trying to answer him. The first the first degree is what I am insisting must be a degree in civil engineering. The reason for this is that we have very young people who are getting discouraged to study engineering and architecture. It is because their courses and institutions are being taken over by holders of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Law degrees. All the institutions are being headed by lawyers. Have we ever seen a Chief Justice who is not ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), a very serious hospital, is being managed by an accountant or a lawyer. I do not think it is right. The Kenya Airways, an institution that has serious logistical issues is being managed by a marketer. I do not think that is right. Most of these institutions should be managed by people of those fields. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: He is my chief Whip. If I do not give him a chance, he might de-whip me. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: That is why I give him a chance, not Hon. Osotsi. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I know you are a lawyer but, I have seen a tendency of lawyers trying to open all the big jobs for themselves. That, you must have a degree in law; you cannot have any degree. I do not think it is right. I also want to inform my Whip of the Majority Party that this emotional feeling that he was not a doctor, but he was the best performing CEO is just measured emotionally. There was no criterion of measuring who the best was. Truth be told, we must encourage our young boys and girls ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: you get a first degree, maybe at the age of 24 years, you will be 34 years old after 10 years. That is relatively a good age to become a CEO. I am electronic engineer. I became a country CEO at the age of 33 years, just by virtue of my energy and good work. So, it also good I became a country manager at the age of 34 years. I was leading a country like Uganda. I went to Ethiopia at 35 years of age. I am happy I had a lot of energy at that age. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Now I am getting old. view
