• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: It is my hope that by approving these names and having these people with very wide experience in the management of money matters, they will inject new blood and energy within the CBK that will help the country move forward as far as securing and management of our monetary--- view
• 18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I have finished, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view

• 17 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Injendi, for giving me the opportunity. I would like to thank you for bringing this particular Motion to the House. The marriage institution is very important; it is the basic unit of the family. The way these regulations were made, where we have only12 marriage centres in the country, is discouraging people to have proper marriages. I, therefore, would like this to be reverted to not only the sub-county level, but also where pastors and priests will access the necessary documents, as it had been the case previously. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, whatever is done should be ... view
• 16 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Report. In this Republic, people who have been entrusted with leadership responsibilities have abused their offices to siphon resources from public coffers for their own good. The sad thing is that those who engage in mega scandals go scot free at the expense of the majority of Kenyans. It is very easy to punish a person who has stolen a goat. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, a company was registered in 2007 and within a short period of time, it acquired massive assets. This is history that has repeated itself ... view
• 16 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Committee on Implementation. We want to see what will be done to the recommendations by the Public Investments Committee (PIC). We also want to see the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) act. I saw an advertisement for positions in EACC. We want to see the people who are given the responsibility of investigating going ahead with their work. As Kenyans, we want to see things happening because we are tired of just talking but nothing of essence happens. To stop this, the people who are involved in the leadership - that is the Executive, the House and people who are ... view
• 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support the Report of the Committee on Education, Research and Technology on the payment of pension to those retired teachers. Teachers are very important members of the community. They do a great job in terms of forming and transforming the young people. It is important that after people have given this Republic useful services as these teachers have done, they are recognised and paid their dues. It is unfortunate that we are discussing matters that were settled more than 18 years ago. This is the case and yet some of those retired teachers are languishing ... view
• 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: people does not take care of itself or respect the lives of its people. Those retired teachers are an aged and vulnerable lot. It is, therefore, important that the Government takes heed and ensures that those retired teachers are paid their dues as per the recommendation of the Committee so that they can utilise them. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I rise to support this Bill. It is important in the sense that it provides the opportunity for transfer of prisoners from foreign countries. Some of our citizens who go out for one reason or another might find themselves on the wrong side of the law. In the process, they end up being imprisoned. That causes a lot of trouble for the families of those prisoners. Some of those prisoners are in faraway places like China, India, the United States and United Kingdom. Members of their families may want to go ... view
• 9 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Report by the Committee on the ratification of this Protocol. First, having considered the Protocol and the Report by the Committee, I support the observations made by the Committee regarding the ratification of the Protocol. This particular Protocol is going to reduce the freight transport charges and improve transport. Again, it is going to make it easier for trade within the East African Community. It will increase business. Once we increase business, there is also the opportunity of improving trade. When we reduce freight charges and the time taken in terms ... view
