• 21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: In developed countries, every household is a participant in the stock market because there is confidence within the markets. That is because of the standard practices that are provided by bodies like the one that we are trying to establish here. view
• 21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support this Bill and hope that we will pass it. I hope that we will get things moving very quickly so that we can bring our people into the entire spectrum of investment assets within the markets and make Kenya, as a country, an investment hub for East Africa and Africa at large. That is because we have enough professionals. Kenyans are well educated people. Kenyans are also very smart people and will do very well in programmes like the CFA. What we are basically doing is to domesticate the CFA so that we have ... view
• 21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, with those few remarks, I support this Bill. view
• 13 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. You will add a minute. I respect the honorable Member but I think I am torn between supporting this Bill and opposing it because I am not sure whether it is appropriate to have this kind of Bill having a legal standing – a legal framework for this order of business. I think we are mixing things up here. If you look at all modern democracies that are there, there is a presidential succession which usually has a legal standing. There is a legal framework to provide for a presidential succession. But the order ... view
• 13 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: No! I think the similarities between the Kenya National Assembly and the Senate are the same. The Senate in the US is representing regions and states just as the Senate in Kenya, which is supposed to represent the counties. That is why you have an equal number of senators across the US. The smallest State has a senator. The biggest State is California. The senators represent the States. All the States are equal. If you look at the establishment of the House of Representatives in the US, it was supposed to represent the people. That is why they have proportional ... view
• 13 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: So, there are two things that this Bill is missing. One, is the visiting Heads of State. In the US, in that protocol, the visiting Heads of State usually come immediately after the President. If the President of Uganda were to be here, I think he comes ahead of our Deputy President next to the President. The other thing is the governors of the states where functions are taking place. That is very specific where functions are taking place. Governors usually come ahead of Members of Parliament and Senate. That is because there is a reason for that. I think ... view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I am one man who believes that hon. Kamama is a very hard working and truly committed man. I appreciate the fact that he plans to visit Maralal with the Committee. view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is almost a year since this great man was killed and Tom Kichwas not just a student but was also a student leader and a good man indeed. view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: I would like to seek clarification from hon. Kamama who I trust very much whether he could give us the timeline as to when he will get to Maralal. This is because it is almost a year since this family lost their son and the Samburu people lost a great student leader. I will appreciate if he can give us a timeline. I know that the Committee is busy but I know that will help a great deal to calm tension as far as the Samburu people are concerned on the killing of that student. The electronic version of the ... view
• 7 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: The other matter I want clarified is how long does the public prosecution take to get into cases where somebody has been killed? We have lost a life and it is almost a year and yet these guys are still carrying investigations on the obvious. The Police and OCS, Maralal shot Tom Kich. view
