• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: country. Before I contribute to this Bill, I wish to thank the House for passing the Uwezo Fund Regulations yesterday. I want to urge the women and youth of this country that the opportunity is in their hands now. It is now for them to form groups of between five people and 15 people and be ready to get the funds. We also urge them to look at investment opportunities in this country so that they invest wisely and ensure that they refund the funding so that this Fund can grow and boost the economy. We also urge this House ... view
• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, we know that the youth have also been having a lot of difficulties in registering their businesses. I want to urge the Government to come to their aid. We know the Jubilee Government is able. We know recently the President launched a very important centre where we can get all the services at one point. I want to urge the Government to move forward and roll out this programme to all the counties so that when you are registering businesses and companies you will not be required to come to Nairobi to just search for a business ... view

This is the right move to empower our people and once we do that we know every funding which is injected into the economy will have a multiplier effect and it will actually grow our economy. Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker and I beg to support. view
• 18 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to contribute to this Uwezo Fund and I thank the House Business Committee for prioritizing this. In the wake of this Session, we indicated that we need to change and prioritize what we need to do in this country which affects our people. If you look at the amendments done by the Senate, they are actually not very significant. We can consider them as a house keeping procedure because it does not change significantly. view
• 18 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: However, it is worth noting the key issue which was brought in by the Senate was to bring in standardization in terms of capacity building.

• 18 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: It is worth noting that this country will never grow if we do not empower our people. Empowerment is the key thing and we have to support this as soon as we pass these Regulations. We want this money to reach the constituencies as fast as possible. I urge this House to pass these Regulations without further delay. We know the repercussions of changing the amendments done by the Senate and this will actually delay further the process. Nothing will be supported by the public because the mood is that the money should reach them as fast as possible. view
