• 3 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: (iii) What is the policy of the Office of the DPP with regard to addressing complaints lodged by the public? Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 3 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Yes. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I also support the Report of the Committee. It is very wrong to have the Office of the Auditor-General vacant for such a long time. This can be seen in many Government offices where we have many people working in acting capacity. In fact, if you go to many public offices, you will find that most of the staff have had their contracts extended beyond the 60 years age of retiring. We cannot plan The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be ... view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: our succession. It is wrong. I would like to urge the Public Service Commission (PSC), because it is responsible for promotion of staff, to promote people on time. I used to work at the Ministry of Public Works. If I was still there, I would be one of the youngest members of staff because PSC has refused to employ young people. They have even refused to promote the ones who are there thus creating a very huge gap. When it comes to promotion, they set conditions which cannot be attained by people who work there. That is why we are ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to make my contribution. At the outset, I say that I support this Bill. It is very important that we protect the small players from the big players. You know the way supermarkets operate is very unique. You will find a supplier has brought goods worth a lot of money and he has nowhere to take them. When the buyer realises that, of course, he will take advantage. We have seen it happen within supermarkets. When it comes to payments, they are usually delayed. Most suppliers in this country ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: allowed to do works from Kshs1.5 billion and beyond. In NCA8, where the majority of our locals are, you are allowed to do works worth KShs5 million. You find there is no fair competition. It takes a local person a very long time before you are able to do those big contracts. Again, because of unfair trade practices, you find that the Chinese will come here and cheat the Government that they are going to partner with locals. We have no way of controlling this. Maybe now with this authority, they should be able to monitor what is happening in ... view
• 19 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: It is not style. It is wash and wear. view
• 19 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me finish by saying that I support this Bill. It will go a long way in helping our local suppliers who have been frustrated by the Nakumatts of this country and various other organisations. view
• 1 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. view
• 1 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I support the Bill. It is a very nice Bill. Early childhood education is very critical because that is the time most kids make good judgements on what they will do in future. We also know that the rich invest a lot in early childhood education centres. It was very wrong for the Government to have devolved both early childhood education and polytechnics. From what we are seeing, most county governments have not been able to provide good infrastructure. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes ... view
