• 6 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: I want to also take note that even as we talk about disasters and droughts in the historically known areas and counties…. One of the speakers before me mentioned that our country has changes because of climate change. Some of the areas that we thought were food- sufficient are now starting to face problems from time to time. I look forward to the operationalisation of the rules and regulations that will guide this fund so that they can also cover the areas that are not historically known to be disaster prone. In the same way, some of the counties that ... view
• 6 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: We should extend this fund to other emergencies. We have this notion that disasters can only be brought by the drought that we see. I want to bring it to the attention of this House that even in areas like where I come from where we grow rice in large scale; we are sometimes confronted by seasons that totally fail our farmers. When this happens, because again we are not known to be a drought-prone area, our farmers suffer without anybody coming to help them during that time. It may be out of a failed season or diseases like the ... view

• 6 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: I support this Bill. As I said, I hope that the relevant ministry will look at the areas I have mentioned. I have so many areas that need to be looked at from time to time. We also need to look at areas that grow maize. When there is drought or other calamities in those areas, they should be well covered by such a fund. view

• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to this Bill. Even as I do so, I want to also recognise the presence of one of my schools, Nyangati Secondary School, the beautiful boys and girls at the top in the Speaker’s Gallery.

I rise to support this Bill with some reservations with the hope that when we go to the Committee of the whole House, we will have cleared ... view
• 31 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: education but are proving to be very successful in that particular area starting very small companies, growing them with the little knowledge that they have, providing leadership to the managers in those companies. I want to make a note that there is a great difference between managers and leaders. Most of these entrepreneurs end up being leaders who carry the vision of the companies that they form. But as the world is growing, there is so much that is changing and there is need for an institution that will continually provide capacity building to such entrepreneurs. We have seen in ... view
