  • 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Just like everybody else, today I was not very sympathetic about the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) Budget being cut. However, I realised that some of these Commissions take this House for granted in so many ways. Since the House has already passed that, I will go with it but next time we should consult them. I did not see the rationale for doing that to them. Again, maybe, it is the attitude of these commissions that has made this House to act in so punitive ways. I thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee and my friends, like Eng. Gumbo, ... view
  • 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: I want to speak about CDF, which has been one of the greatest success stories of our country. If you were to go to any part of our country, you will realise that the CDF has had a success story in almost every village. I do not know any other programme that will be as successful as the CDF. There is a reason as to why the CDF is so successful. It is because we have put ceilings. The CDF was the first devolution in this country. Apart from its devolution, there is another very important element within the CDF ... view
  • 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: practices from the CDF because that is why the CDF is working. It is not an expenditure programme; it is a development programme.

The other thing I want to speak about is the money that we are giving to different legislative bodies within Parliament.

  • 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, is it in order for the Mover of the Motion to tell us something that is not true; that universities in USA are ranked based on examinations? American universities are not ranked based on examinations but rather, they are ranked based on variables like getting--- view
  • 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: If I got him right, he was basically looking at the criteria and yet, the issue here is ranking. In the USA, you will find different people ranking schools differently, based on different criteria. view

  • 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
  • 11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I did not say that. However, if I made any mistake then I apologise. view

  • 4 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I rise in support. Under Article 245 of the Constitution of Kenya, the Office of the Inspector- General is provided for and it should have an occupier. When you look at the resume of Mr. Boinnet, he has worked in the Public Service for over 31 years. That is a very long time to work for the Republic of Kenya. We should appreciate the work he has done in the Public Service. Further to that, he has risen through the ranks from a mere police officer to an intelligence officer ... view
