• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: The Report of the Kenya’s Parliamentary Delegation respecting its participation at the Inter- Parliamentary Union (IPU) Annual Parliamentary Hearings at the United Nations, New York, USA on 22nd – 23rd February, 2018. view
• 11 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support this Petition by Hon. Theuri. I think time has come when our road designers and engineers should put more emphasis and consideration on pedestrians. It has happened on so many roads that every time a new road is constructed, the public is left asking for bumps because vehicles are over speeding. The Thika Superhighway, which is the biggest road in Kenya, was built and then bumps were constructed on the same road because the designers forgot, ignored or had some monkey business about putting foot bridges across the road. The bumps that were ... view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I, the undersigned, on behalf of residents of Kiambu Constituency, draw the attention of the House to the following: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: (a) THAT, in April 2016, Chase Bank was put under statutory management by the Central Bank of Kenya following liquidity issues. Subsequently, after two weeks of the closure of the bank, Chase Bank was put under the management of the Kenya Commercial Bank; (b) THAT, in January 2018, a Malaysian lender, SMB Holdings, received an approval from the CBK to take over Chase Bank; (c) THAT, as part of the deal, CBK indicated that SMB Holdings would acquire the lender’s carved assets and liabilities and absorb the staff of Chase Bank; (d) THAT, the United Bank Limited of Dubai and ... view
• 28 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Petition is not about the acquisition of the bank. The Petition is about the role of the CBK in the acquisition of the bank. Did the CBK play its rightful role in making sure that these banks did not collapse? Did it play its supervisory role in the transaction that was carried out? This Petition has nothing to do with the actual acquisition of the bank. The matter that is in court is about acquisition of the bank. The petitioners are asking about the role of the CBK, so that other banks do not follow suit if ... view
• 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support this Bill but I want to question the statement that has been made by the Chair that there was full consultation and public participation. I am the Member of Parliament for Kiambu which is directly affected by this Bill. Nobody has consulted me and asked for any opinion. I have even talked to other Members of Parliament, including Members from Nairobi County. They were not consulted about this. This is a very good idea. It is an action that will change the way life would be in Nairobi and in the metropolitan ... view
• 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: I am foreseeing a situation where it will rain like it has done today, and then all that we will have done will be destroyed because it was not done properly. I believe proper public participation, including participation by Members of Parliament and Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) should be conducted. view
• 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Maybe my point was lost, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. What I was trying to drive home is that this metropolitan area involves counties around Nairobi which are represented by governors, Members of Parliament and MCAs. Being in leadership and having been elected to represent the people, it would have been a very good idea for the whole leadership to be called together and discuss it even before it goes for public participation. view
• 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. This is because as the Chairman was making his contribution, I also made mine that the method used, not for public participation but consultation among leaders in various areas, was not properly carried out. That does not mean that I do not support this Bill. I support it in its entirety because, for once, this Bill will be a game-changer. This will be the first time that the county governments would be coming together with national Government to put their heads together and think of ... view
• 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: driving along Thika Road, you find that in such a magnificent project, the first one of its kind in East and Central Africa, there a bumps along superhighway causing kilometers of traffic jam. This is because the designers of the road did not do proper consultation to find where most people would like to cross the road. There are areas where bridges have been used and they are not busy. There are other areas like Witeithie in Thika which is so busy yet no foot bridges have been provided and those cause many kilometers of traffic jam. view
