• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Pursuant to Standing Order No.43, I seek leave of the House for the purpose of discussing challenges affecting registration on the National Education Management Information System (NEMIS) by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology in the country. I want to seek extension of the registration period to a date more suitable to all parties including parents. There have been concerns about the process because the period allocated to NEMIS is not suitable. It is for this reason including intelligence that I seek leave of the House in order to discuss and deliberate on NEMIS. view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: The National Education Management Information System started in 2017 and it was rolled out countrywide this year. This is an online portal for both primary and secondary schools but it is facing some challenges. Among the identified challenges include inadequate human resources. For instance, in Makueni County, we have only two registration officers and one clerk who are serving more than six sub-counties in Makueni. There is lack of public awareness and sensitisation of the importance of NEMIS. Many parents have become fearful because they are not aware of the impact of NEMIS. It is a requirement for all schools ... view
• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Finally, noting the above challenges, the deadline of 31st March 2018 cannot be met by most institutions and our further concern is on the long queues being experienced in the registry offices.

• 27 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for the time. I urge the House to, thereby, allow the registration of students with the required details and with more confidence in the NEMIS system. The Ministry of Interior and Co-ordination of National Government should address these challenges and ensure faster, efficient and accurate process of issuing birth certificates and student registration. In this House we have the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. I wish that the Committee takes up this matter and makes sure that Kenyans get their rights. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report ... view
• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. Let me take this opportunity to support this Motion, first, because mining is very important in our county. Where I come from in Kaiti Constituency, we have minerals and I feel bad sometimes when I see the people of Kaiti being misused by investors. Sometimes they come and mine and leave our people with a lot of poverty due to lack of good policies. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 8 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support this Motion. We need to support it as a country. We need to involve our people to do some sensitisation, so that we can support mining because it will improve the economy and education in our country. view
• 7 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute on this Motion but before I do so, I want join my colleagues in sending my condolences to the family of the late Governor of Nyeri. I learnt about his death this morning. I encourage the family and tell them that my family and the people of Kaiti are with them in prayers in this trying moment. Coming back to the Motion, it has been a challenge to this country. We know that there are some communities who depend on livestock for their livelihood. Therefore, this is a serious ... view
• 7 Nov 2017 in National Assembly: Also, we need to beef up security along our boundaries to make sure there is no loss of livestock. We need to handle the issue of boundaries with a lot of care. If we leave it to the hands of our neighbours, it will bring losses to our country and affect our economy. I take this opportunity to support this Motion, which is very important. I stand with the affected communities. We need to get a solution. As the Member of Parliament for Kaiti, I support the Motion. view
