• 7 May 2013 in National Assembly: I would like to take this chance to thank Hon. Nyamai for supporting this Motion. I also want to thank all hon. Members who have contributed to this Motion; my plea is that we vote for this Motion. I was consulting with the Member for Kabete, Hon. Muchai. I looked at this document properly with him and we wanted to move an amendment, but we were caught up by time; the class we are trying to protect is the special. view
• 7 May 2013 in National Assembly: I want to recognize that Hon. Geni, Dido, Kabui, ole Lemein, Lati, Mwamkale, Ngare, Naicca, Ms. Mbarire, Dr. Nyongesa, Ms. Nyasuna, Prof. Nyikal, Dr. Oginga, Kemei and Makenga amongst others. After sponsoring this Motion, I sat down with Prof. Nyikal and went through the NHIF Act. We later agreed that we were not trying to protect employers. So I would like to urge my colleagues to support this Motion, so that we try to improve the lives of mama mbogas and the boda boda people who are most unfortunate. view
• 7 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, Sir, for protection. I thought that in the Tenth Parliament, Hon. Langat was acquainted with these matters! I am surprised that he is still behaving like an underdog. view
• 7 May 2013 in National Assembly: My Motion’s intention is to try and protect mama mbogas, the people who contribute on their own and not the employers who can hold money when they have deducted it from employees. My concern, and hon. Langat is also aware of the same, is that even people in his constituency people are being surcharged the 500 per cent; these are people who voted for him and brought him to this House for a second time. view
• 7 May 2013 in National Assembly: I wish to leave it there and to the conscience of hon. Members; I hope that they will support this Motion. view
• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard the hon. Member from Muhoroni say that the drafter of this Motion was trying to bring impunity. Can he substantiate? view
• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 2 May 2013 in National Assembly: Is the hon. Member for Muhoroni in order when he tries to insinuate in this House that there are two categories yet if I rush to my office now, you will get a bulky record of the penalties that are charged to boda boda people by NHIF, which is 500 per cent? view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, aware that the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) defaulters continue to be surcharged a penalty of 500% of the outstanding amount; and further aware that the penalty is barely affordable to majority of Kenyans, this House urges the Government to consider reducing the NHIF penalty surcharge to defaulters from the current 500% to 25%. Thank you hon. Speaker, for giving me this chance to move this Motion. Before I do anything else, I would like to take this chance to congratulate you on your election as the Speaker of this ... view
